Abstract:

In order to achieve multi-channel high-speed optical signal acquisition, a data acquisition system based on PCIe bus is established and its applied algorithms such as low-speed Slave channel and high-speed DMA channel are investigated. First, based on hardware structure and basic operating principle of data acquisition card, the algorithms of data transmission problems for PCIe bus are presented.Then,the principles and algorithms of low-speed Slave channel and high-speed DMA channel are analyzed. Function simulation and online simulation of the data transmission algorithm is successfully fulfilled with Modelsim and SignalTap.Finally,plug the data acquisition card into PC for the actual test.Experimental results indicate that the data acquisition system’s peak bandwidth based on PCIe bus with X4 mode is 615.38 MB/s. It can satisfy the system requirements of strong stabilization, high bandwidth, as well as modularization.
