Abstract
We report on the development of a digital hadron calorimeter for the future International Linear Collider. Te calorimeter is of the sandwich type with iron absorber plates and resistive plate chamber as active medium. The readout pads are very finely segmented, with an area of 1 cm
2
, and are being read out digitally. We present the design, construction and testing of various prototype chambers as well as the development of a readout system capable of handling a large number of channels. We plan to construct a 1 m
3
prototype section of the calorimeter containing approximately 400,000 channels. The section will undergo testing in various particle beams.
