      abstract     = {The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a
                      multi-purpose underground experiment based on a 20,000 ton
                      liquid scintillator with the primary objective of
                      determining the neutrino mass hierarchy. The signal
                      detection is performed by photomultipliers PMT and
                      integrated readout electronics. The central component for
                      the digitization process is a receiver chip with a low power
                      analog to digital conversion unit of large dynamic range. In
                      order to efficiently utilize the conversion unit’s dynamic
                      range, a custom data processor and a regulation circuit were
                      included in the chip. In this thesis, the design,
                      development and prototype measurements of the data
                      processing unit and a regulation circuit included in the
                      analog to digital conversion unit are presented. The
                      processor analyzes the data and performsd ata reduction
                      resulting in efficient utilization of output bandwidth.
                      Based on the systemand event information transmitted by the
                      processor along with the data, successful signal
                      reconstruction was carried out. The regulation circuit
                      reduces the noise level thereby increasing the effective
                      number of bits available for the signal. The complexity of
                      the PMT installation poses difficulty to replace faulty
                      electronics during runtime of the experiment. A design for
                      test structure included in the receiver chip with the
                      intention to extract defect free electronics during testing
                      of the mass-produced chips is also described. The
                      introduction of test structures in the design successfully
                      increased the overall test coverage. Finally, the insights
                      from the developed model of the receiver chain are
                      presented.},
