hi everybody How can the FPGAs (particularly ALTERA) be used for high speed data acquisition of the order of 10 MSPS(mega samples per second ).Which one ADSP 21992 or FPGA is better? What is a CAN(CONTROone ADSP 21992 or FPGA is better? What is a CAN(CONTROL AREA NETWORK)? pls reply soon .thanks in advance

There is a recent thread on DAQ at 1GHz in an FPGA. snipped-for-privacy@posting.google.com I guess your DSP can not do that.
10MHz on a single channel is hardly high speed for either approach, you use whatever you like, it probably does not matter much. Well, if you want to do 100000 channels at 10MHz you better use FPGAs. Especially if you did it in 1994 like these guys:

CAN is a network standard use primarily in cars. (see the 2000+ google hits for "control area network")

Do you know any reference design for 10M sample/sec 12-16bit resolution ADC board with 4-16Ksample buffer? AND/OR A commercial board ADC board with above mentioned specs and with PC104+ PCI or PC104 ISA or USB interface ?
Not PC104 but high speed USB2.0 and 64Ms 12 Bit:
