Abstract :
The front-end electronics of the DO Ur/liquid argon calorimeter has been replaced to operate with the new shorter time separation between particle bunches at the Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron. The upgrades of the electronic readout system are described, and the first results of the calibration and the performance of the calorimeter are presented.
