Performance of ANUSPARSH-III ASIC chipset with 1 m x 2 m glass RPC

India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) is a mega science project of India which aims to build an underground observatory to study the properties of neutrinos. A major experiment to be housed in the observatory is a massive 50 kt magnetized Iron Calorimeter (ICAL) detector. It would be employing about 30,000 square shaped RPCs of 2 m² area interleaved with iron plates. The ANUSPARSH ASIC chipset has been developed by the Electronics Division, BARC to be employed in front end electronics of the ICAL to amplify and discriminate signals obtained from the RPCs. Tests were done at RPC lab, NPD-BARC to see the performance of the chipset with 2 m long copper readouts of the RPC
