Description
The KEK ATF facility is Accelerator Test Facility devoted to develop beam instrumentation technologies for International Linear Collider (ILC) project. The Accelerator Test Facility Low-level RF (LLRF) and timing systems are vital systems to operate and synchronize pulsed accelerators. KEK ATF facility timing system supplies trigger and gate signals for DAQ, klystrons, laser systems, interlocks etc., while LLRF system is responsible for the RF signals synchronization.
This report demonstrates KEK ATF facility timing system based on the event generator and receiver logic, including its synchronization to the facility RF system. Also, the necessity of the low noise LLRF and timing system operation to achieve stable beam injection and its storage in the damping ring will be demonstrated in this report.
This work is supported by the MEXT program Development of Key Element Technologies to Improve the Performance of Future Accelerators (Grant Number JPMXP1423812204).
