Laser radar echo signal converted by photoelectric conversion has the characteristics of narrow pulse width, low amplitude and high background noise. The accuracy of the signal would not be high when using low speed data acquisition. Meanwhile, connecting the digital signal processor to A/D converter directly would lead to the not-timely data transfer, and affect system’s reliability and real-time. This paper proposed a high-speed data acquisition system based on FPGA and DSP aiming at the laser radar echo signal. The data transfer between A/D converter and the high-speed external memory interface (EMIF) of DSP was achieved by using FPGA internal asynchronous FIFO and DCM. The peripheral circuit, timing sequence of ADC and the parameters of EMIF were described, and the timing of writing and reading FIFO was simulated. The key points of the hardware design were also proposed. The sample rate of system is 30MHz, and resolution is 12bits.
