DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/839787· OSTI ID:839787

We discuss progress and issues relevant to the design of a highly segmented silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter. Our design features a complete readout chip which is integrated onto each detector wafer, thus reducing the effective channel count by a factor of about 1000. We apply this design to the SD detector of the American LC Physics Group, but some elements could be applicable elsewhere.
