A preamplifier for the muon system of the CBM experiment

The structure and results of the experimental study of the application specific integrated circuit, which contains two versions of a preamplifier for reading out and preprocessing signals of muon chambers, are presented. An integrated circuit was designed for operation in the muon system of the International Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at the FAIR accelerator facility (Darmstadt, Germany). It was manufactured by the CMOS technology with 0.18-μm design rules of the UMC company (Taiwan) via the Europractice European organization.
