Abstract :
We describe a readout module for radiation-sensing field-effect transistors. Three of these modules are currently being used for measuring the total accumulated dose in the silicon vertex detector (SVD) of the Belle experiment at KEKB B-meson factory in the High energy accelerator research organization (KEK), Japan. These modules have been in operation since August 2005
