Abstract

It is presented the readout electronics of the Scintillator Pad Detector (SPD), the front layer of the LHCb Calorimeter. SPD is in charge of distinguishing charged from neutral particles for the level o Trigger. Signal from scintillator pads is converted by 64 channel Multianode Photomultiplier and processed by a full custom ASIC which delivers a single bit per channel. Those bits are sent over 25 meters through a high speed LVDS connection. Signal characteristics call for variable comparator levels and pile up correction.
