Diamond is widely adopted in physics experiments owing to its good radiation hardness. In this paper, a low noise electronics system based on charge sensitive amplifier (CSA) is designed to read out diamond microstrip detectors. Up to 40 channels are implemented in the system, each containing a CSA, a CR — RC
2 shaper, an analog to digital convertor (ADC) and a discriminator used for trigger generation. After calibration and joint test with prototype detector with a size of 4×4×0.5 mm
3, a noise level of less than 845 electrons is realized in all 40 channels. Furthermore, the result with 90
Sr radiation source is consistent with the theory, and a position resolution of 13 um is obtained in laser test which indicates the readout system meets the demand of the future experiment.
