Abstract
We report preliminary beam test results of linear Silicon Drift, Detector p rototypes for the ALICE experiment. Linearity, resolution, charge transport and collection, and efficiency have been studied using a minimum ionizing particle beam for a very large area detector prototype read out with the OL A preamplifier/shaper and for another detector read out using a new transim pedance amplifier with a non linear response.
