Abstract :
The development of large readout systems for proportional wire chambers was hindered for some time by the lack of mass-produced hybrid or integrated circuits for the amplifier, shaper, delay, memory and readout elements. However, two large experiments, involving a total of 12,000 wires, have now been equipped with hybrid elements and incorporated in a CAMAC-interfaced readout highway.
