LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson5 More than 200 LLRF stations to be built by 2019 for RFQ, DTL, spoke and elliptical cavities. (One klystron for one cavity.) Many issues to be addressed Stringent demands from ESS leads to tough challenges Pulse length: 2.86 ms Rep rate: 14 Hz Current: 50mA

Klystron Linearization 12 Minimize power overhead. Is 20% enough? Issues: high effeciency LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
Issues: high availability Availability at ESS 95% Avoid failures that cause the whole system to fail Redundancy Automatically detect Fast recovery LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
Issues: others High intensity Long pulse High gradient Spoke cavity LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
Design guidelines Fault tolerant architecture and design – Redundancy or adaption? Easy maintenance – Generic design for all LLRF stations? – Modular design? – Auto-config and auto-calibration? Cost effective and long lived – Multiple vendors? – Software defined function by FPGA/DSP implementation for future upgrades? LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
Main architecture of ESS LLRF FPGA based solution Separate analog mixers for down- and up-conversion I/Q-demodulation and modulation One master oscillator for the whole ESS – Phase reference for RF – Time reference for control, science Global phase reference distribution Coaxial phase reference line EPICS control system LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
Interesting possibilities: Co-design with Beam Instrumentation – Simplify upkeep of installation – Minimize cost of units for installation and inventory Open Hardware solution – Multiple sources of hardware possible LLRF Workshop 2011, R. Zeng, A. J. Johansson
