A prototype chip for the analogue readout of the SPD
in the LHCb Calorimeter is presented. The chip has been
designed using the 0.8mm-BiCMOS technology of AMS
and optimised for minimum size and maximum
performance at the required frequency of operation in
LHC experiments. It consists of a dual structure formed
by two integrators, two track and hold circuits, two
substractors, two comparators and a multiplexer. The die
size occupied by one discriminator circuit is
approximately 1720 mm x 330 mm.
