Abstract
We have constructed a 60 cm long DC-coupled p-side silicon microstrip detector with 50 mu m pitch and beam tested it at CERN by using 50 GeV electrons. In this paper we describe the production and assembly of t he ladder and present the beam test results. We obtain a signal-to-noi se ratio of 10 and spatial resolution better than 13 mu m over the ful l length of the ladder.
