We have designed and constructed an orthogonal strip imaging system for use with room temperature semiconductor strip detectors. The system has been tested with both HgI2 and Cd1-xZnxTe (CZT) detector elements. Our first system consists of complete readout electronics and software for spectroscopy and imaging with 8 by 8 orthogonal strip detectors. The readout electronics consist of 16 channels of hybrid charge sensitive preamplifiers, and 16 channels of parallel discriminators, shaping amplifiers, and a 16 channel ADC implemented in CAMAC and NIM. The software used to readout the instrument is capable of performing intensity measurements as well as spectroscopy on all 64 pixels of the device. In this paper we describe measurements to determine the factors limiting the performance of this system.
