The first prototypes of the production version of the Front-End Driver (FED) card for the CMS silicon strip tracker are about to be manufactured. The FEDs provide the off-detector processing of the tracker readout system. They digitise and zero-suppress the multiplexed analogue optical data sent on each Level-1 trigger from the ondetector APV25 pipeline chips. This paper outlines the design and describes in detail the implementation of the 96 ADC channel, 9U VME64x form factor card. In total, 440 FEDs will be required to readout the silicon strip tracker.
