Abstract :
A CMOS front end electronics chain is being developed by the RD20 collaboration in a CERN R&D programme for silicon microstrip readout at LHC. It is based on a preamplifier and CR-RC filter, analogue pipeline and an analogue signal processor which implements a deconvolution algorithm. The system is described and latest results on performance presented, including the status of implementation in radiation hard technology
