Developing a new beam position monitor electronics for HIPA, The PSI High Intensity Proton Accelerator
83
The High Intensity Proton Accelerator (HIPA) at PSI presently has an RF beam position monitor (BPM) system based on 20 year old Xilinx Virtex-2 Pro Systems-on-Chip (SoC), using application-specific integrated circuits (ASICS) for direct digital downconverters. For the planned upgrade of the electronics as well as for new HIPA projects, we started the development of a new HIPA BPM electronics, using a generic electronics platform called "DBPM3" that is already being used for SwissFEL and SLS 2.0 electron BPM systems. In this contribution, first test results of a DBPM3-based HIPA BPM electronics prototype are presented, including a comparison with the present electronics.

Overview of SLS 2.0 beam based feedbacks and BPM system
359
For the ongoing upgrade of the Swiss Light Source (SLS) storage ring, the previous ageing beam-based feedbacks and beam position monitor (BPM) systems are replaced by newly developed versions, where beam commissioning is planned to start in January 2025. Feedbacks include the fast orbit feedback (FOFB), transverse and longitudinal multibunch feedback (MBFB), and filling pattern feedback (FPFB). In this contribution, we give an overview of the architectures and development/production status of these feedbacks and of the BPM system, including latest pre-beam test results.

Directly driving GHz-range power amplifiers with RF systems-on-chip for the SLS 2.0 longitudinal multibunch feedback
363
In the past, the longitudinal multibunch feedback (MBFB) at the Swiss Light Source (SLS) storage ring had used an analog upconverter to translate the output signal of a 500 MSample/s DAC to the 1.25-1.5 GHz operation frequency range of the longitudinal MBFB kicker magnet and its power amplifier. For SLS 2.0, we have investigated the possibility to drive the power amplifier of a newly designed kicker (operating at 1.75-2 GHz) directly with the multi-GHz / multi-GSample/s DACs of an RF System-on-Chip (RFSoC). First lab test results with the new SLS 2.0 kicker magnet and its power amplifier are presented. Related methods for RFSoC-based bunch-to-bunch crosstalk compensation in the presence of transient beam loading and 200ps range arrival time variations along the bunch train are also presented. Moreover, the latest status and plans for our MBFB firmware/software implementation on an RFSoC will be given.
