Some Limitations of PAD/PAC l l A feedback control loop has to follow the chain of PAD-VME-PAC connected with Ethernet, the real-time performance is limited. It is not possible to do intra-pulse control (pulse width ~ 3 µs) Computation power of the Coldfire MCU used in PAD/PAC chassis is quite limited. One more Channel Access client connected to the EPICS software in the Coldfire MCU can significantly degrade its real-time performance One PAD chassis (2 U or 3 U) only contains 4 ADC channels. The density is too low to efficiently use the rack space Custom designed chassis is difficult to maintain The Micro. TCA based LLRF system presented in this talk tends to upgrade the PAD/PAC system to be more compact, flexible, maintainable and reliable… 2020/11/29 Zheqiao Geng, Micro. TCA LLRF 12

Intra-pulse Feedback Phase error is estimated at the first part of the RF pulse and the correction is applied at the second part of the RF pulse l l l Loop delay should < 1 µs Phase jitter of different parts of the RF pulse should be correlated The entire loop delay is ~ 600 ns, quite promising for intrapulse feedback. 2020/11/29 Zheqiao Geng, Micro.

System Test at LCLS Linac (LI 28 -2) - Intra-pulse phase slope compensation 2020/11/29 Zheqiao Geng, Micro. TCA LLRF 57
Motivations l l l 2020/11/29 At rising edge of the klystron signal, the phase changes > 100 deg, which will lower the efficiency to fill the SLED cavities Klystron signal after PSK has a phase change > 60 degree, which will lower the integrated E field seen by the beam Idea: Remove the phase slope with feed forward to possibly increase the energy gain from the klystron Zheqiao Geng, Micro.

Phasing the Klystron with Matlab Without phase feed forward control l With 50 iterations of phase feed forward control Need further measurement to clarify if we can really increase the energy gain or not! 2020/11/29 Zheqiao Geng, Micro. TCA LLRF 62
More Tests Need to be Done l l 2020/11/29 Intra-pulse I/Q control need to be tested at critical RF stations like L 1 S before the first bunch compressor. The effects of the intra-pulse control can be examined by monitoring the beam stability Measurement of beam induced signal need to be done at LI 28 -2. To do this test, the klystron need to be in standby state Correlation between RF amplitude/phase jitters and klystron high voltage jitter need to be tested. This will tell us if we can use the klystron high voltage jitter for intra-pulse feedback. As mentioned before, a new klystron beam voltage conditioner board need to be designed More tests need to be done to check if the intra-pulse phase slope compensation can increase the energy gain or not Zheqiao Geng, Micro.

Summary 2020/11/29 Zheqiao Geng, Micro. TCA LLRF 64
Summary of Micro. TCA System l l l 2020/11/29 Micro. TCA introduces intra-pulse control to reduce fast jitters Micro. TCA system uses PCI express for faster data acquisition which enables to save the RF waveforms at 120 Hz or even at 360 Hz Micro. TCA system uses more powerful FPGA and CPU which enables to upgrade the system for 360 Hz or multi-bunch operation without changing the hardware Micro. TCA system contains more ADC channels in a single board which enables to implement the reference tracking to remove the phase jump problem in digital I/Q demodulation algorithm The PAD/PAC system uses Coldfire MCU which is a bottleneck for real-time performance. The PAD-VME-PAC chain is connected with Ethernet and it is not possible to perform intra-pulse control. 120 Hz waveform saving is poorly supported as well Zheqiao Geng, Micro. TCA LLRF 65

TCA has better maintainability: hot-swappable – reducing repair time – more availability Micro. TCA has better reliability – simpler and more compact system structure; redundant MCH and power supply Micro. TCA has better platform management – IPMI Micro.
