Abstract: The experimental results of charge division method with the self-quenching streamer pulses are reported. It is shown that the position resolution at the middle point of 2.5 m long tube can reach 3.3 mm even the signals are sent to ADC module by 60 m long cable. It is much better than using the proportional pulses, and the non-linearity is less than 0.14% of 2.5 m full scale. Some other aspects, such as ADC gate width and selecting of the decoupling capacitor etc. are also discussed, they would provide some practical basis for the design of the sample and hold system in the gas sampling shower counter of the Beijing e+e- collider spectrometer.
