TUPOST017 | PEG Contribution to the LLRF System for Superconducting Elliptical Cavities of ESS Accelerator Linac | 884 |
|
||
The LLRF (Low-Level Radio Frequency) system optimizes energy transfer from the superconducting resonator to the accelerating beam. At ESS, one LLRF system regulates a single cavity. This digital system’s HW platform is the MTCA.4 standard. The system has been co-designed by ESS, Lund University, and the PEG (Polish Electronic Group) consortium. The PEG is also responsible for the system components design, evaluation, and production (like Local Oscillator Rear transition module, piezo tuner driver RTM, RTM carrier board, and others). The PEG delivers a HW/SW cavity simulator, an LLRF system test-stand, and provides necessary integration and installation services required for complete system preparation for the linac commissioning and operation phase. The paper summarizes the PEG work on the development and preparation of the LLRF systems for the ESS elliptical structures. The efforts concerning hardware and software components prototyping and evaluation are discussed. Moreover, we present the current status of the project, including components mass production, integration, and installation work. | ||

Funding: The paper was prepared by WUT and PIP-II, using the resources of Fermilab, a U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, HEP User Facility. Fermilab is acting under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359. The Proton Improvement Plan-II (PIP-II) is a planned proton facility at Fermilab. The short- and long-term beam energy stabilization requirements necessitate using a high-quality Master Oscillator (MO). The consecutive sections of the Linac will operate at 162.5, 325, and 650 MHz. The phase relations between reference signals of harmonic frequencies should be kept constant, and the phase noise should be correlated in a wide bandwidth. The possibility of simultaneously meeting both requirements using popular frequency synthesis schemes is discussed. The ultra-low noise floor of the fundamental source is challenging for other devices in the phase reference distribution system. Therefore, the sensitivity to operating conditions, including impedance matching, input power level, and power supply voltage, must be considered. This paper presents a preliminary performance test of critical components selected for the PIP-II Master Oscillator system performed using a state-of-the-art phase noise analyzer.
