Development of a new clock phase shifter for phase measurement at the TPS

The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a 3 GeV synchrotron radiation facility located at NSRRC. Superconducting RF cavities have been installed in the booster and storage rings to ramp and refill electron beam energy. In order to measure the bunch phase of each bunch relative to the RF clock of the accelerator, a bunch phase detector (BPD) system was constructed to support measurement experiments. This detector uses the I/Q demodulator approach to calculate the beam phase. The system supplies a reference clock to the ADC at the RF frequency, along with a signal at three times the RF frequency, to enable calculation of the phase difference between the beam and the reference signal. The system includes a single-board computer (SBC) which is integrated with the control system to implement the remote phase adjustment function to make the operation more convenient. The BPD has been installed in the TPS and can provide measurement data. This paper describes the efforts in implementing this system.

Abstract

The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a 3 GeV synchrotron radiation facility located at NSRRC. Superconducting RF cavities have been installed in the booster and storage rings to ramp and refill electron beam energy. In order to measure the bunch phase of each bunch relative to the RF clock of the accelerator, a bunch phase detector (BPD) system was constructed to support measurement experiments. This detector uses the I/Q demodulator approach to calculate the beam phase. The system supplies a reference clock to the ADC at the RF frequency, along with a signal at three times the RF frequency, to enable calculation of the phase difference between the beam and the reference signal. The system includes a single-board computer (SBC) which is integrated with the control system to implement the remote phase adjustment function to make the operation more convenient. The BPD has been installed in the TPS and can provide measurement data. This paper describes the efforts in implementing this system.
