The Liquid Argon Calorimeter (LAr) is a subsystem in the ATLAS experiment which is being assembled at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The readout electronics system for the LAr is discussed here. The front-end of the readout will work in radiation environment. This special requirement has led to the development of a large number of rad-hard ASICs. The back-end of the readout employs DSPs to process data to reduce transmission bandwidth. The installation and commissioning of this readout is also discussed here.
