            Abstract : 
As the main component of photomultiplier tube (PMT) readout electronic system for Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, a key project proposed by Chinese physicists, a feasible electrical charge and time readout circuit scheme is studied in this thesis. It is for the readout of signals coming from both the Antineutrino Detector and the Water Cherenkov Detector. Not only charge and time measurement are demanded simultaneously, but strict specifications, such as low noise disturbance and large dynamic range (16 bits), are also required at possible low cost.
