The following pages describe the prototype boards of the GLAST silicon tracker,which will be used in the beam test. Six detector boards will be used. Each board has two detectors with perpendicular strips. One board (btb2) has five detectors on one side which resembles the final design.

1997 Beamtest modules

• Beam test boards
• Threshold and noise scans
• Detector-position and readout
• partial view of the tracker (pic1 pic2) for the beam test
• partial view of the 5-det board (eps file)

Scratches on five detector module

• pic1
• pic2
• pic3

Detector Characteristics
