This paper describes a high-resolution and cost-effective TDC (Time-to-digital converter) system
which mainly consists of a micro-controller and a general-purpose TDC chip based on the delay line technique. The system
in high-resolution mode
reaches a resolution of 125 ps with one channel and a dynamic range of 7.2 μs. The system has been used in an airborne laser depth sounding system in a shallow-water environment.
