Abstract :
The front-end electronics of the Cerenkov Ring Imaging Detector (CRID) used in the Stanford Large Detector (SLD) spectrometer at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) Linear Collider is described. The Plessey process provides a straightforward and low-cost path toward system miniaturization. System tests show good noise performance, calibration precision, system linearity, and signal shape uniformity over the full dynamic range
