Description

This paper reports on the development of the SLD Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector uses a proportional wire detector for which a single channel hybrid. It consists of a preamplifier, gain selectable amplifier, load driver amplifier, power switching, and precision calibrator. For this hybrid, a bipolar, semicustom, integrated circuit has been designed which includes video operational amplifiers for two of the gain stages. This approach allows maximization of the detector volume, allows DC coupling, and enables good selection. System tests show good noise performance, calibration precision, system linearity, and signal shape uniformity over the full dynamic range
