Description
Summary:In order to capture the large-scale interferometric signal generated by the space-borne interferometric infrared Fourier spectrometer (IRIFS) in real time, and overcome the limitations of insufficient sampling rate, transmission rate, and significant signal noise in current equipment, a multi-channel high-speed acquisition system for large-scale interferometric signals is designed. A high-performance analog-to-digital converter (ADC) oversampling scheme is designed, which can realize up to 8 synchronous acquisition channels and has a maximum sampling rate of 125 Msps/Ch to ensure the acquisition of interferometric signals. The scheme of jesd204b inter-board transmission and optical fiber terminal transmission is designed. The inter-board transmission rate is 12.5 Gbps, and the terminal transmission rate is 10 GB/s to ensure high-speed data transmission. A hardware filter is designed to realize spatial noise processing of interference signals and ensure the accuracy of acquisition results. The dynamic performance of the data acquisition (DAQ) card is analyzed using discrete Fourier transform in the frequency domain. The spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) is 84 dB, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is 72.7 dB, and the cross-talk is −81.6 dB, which verifies the dynamic stability of the DAQ card. Finally, the infrared radiation in real space is measured.

The system is of great significance for large-scale infrared interferometric signal acquisition, and has strong practical application value in multi-channel synchronization, real-time high-speed acquisition, and high-speed data transmission.
