Abstract :
A CMOS fully integrated charge preamplifier for nuclear physics spectroscopy measurements, designed to work with germanium detectors in the Gerda experiment is tested. The electronics is composed of two distinct circuits: a low noise charge sensitive preamplifier (CSA) and a fully differential low impedance coaxial cable driver.
