H. Ikeda et al., SINGLE-CHANNEL PROTOTYPE OF A CMOS SVD PREAMPLIFIER FOR THE B-FACTORYEXPERIMENT, BELLE, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 372(1-2), 1996, pp. 125-134
A single-channel CMOS preamplifier circuit was fabricated as a part of
R&D efforts to design a 128-channel preamplifier chip for a silicon v
ertex detector of the BELLE collaboration. The prototype chip was eval
uated in detail with special emphasis being placed on its analog circu
it design and performance. An eight-stage digital/analog pipe-line, an
d a quadruple-correlated noise filter with a low-noise preamplifier ci
rcuit include key technologies for the design.
