Description
A wire spark chamber capacitive readout system with analog FET switch multiplexing and CAMAC interface is described. Two wire planes per chamber are read out. The information of each plane is sequentially digitized in one ADC. This and the low leakage current of the FET switches guarantee a small systematic error of the measurement of the spark position.
