Abstract The influence of the background rate on the operation of cathode strip chamber ( CSC) readout electronics has been studied. The investigation has been performed with two different cathode readout electronics: 16-channels preamplifier-shapers based on GASPLEX and Minsk ASIC "Katod-1". The first one have been tested with 4-layer 0.5´0.5 m2 CSC. One layer has been irradiated by X-ray tube ( Eg=8KeV) while the others - used for cosmic muon track coordinate reconstruction. Electronics based on Minsk ASIC have been tested with P3 prototype of ME1/1 CSC in pion beam at H2 experimental area. For both electronics the background contribution to the registered events as a function of the background rate are presented.
