摘要
This paper describes the design and preliminary test of the low-level radio frequency (LLRF) part of the C band high-gradient test facility for the Shanghai Soft X-ray Free-Electron Laser (SXFEL)-Linear Accelerator (LINAC). Before installation, the accelerating structures should be tested and conditioned. During the conditioning process, breakdown detection is needed to protect the accelerating structures and klystron from damage. The PCI extensions for instrumentation-based LLRF system and auto-conditioning algorithm are designed and applied in the LLRF part of the C band high-gradient test facility. Three C band accelerating structures and 1 pulse compressor have completed conditioning and were installed in the SXFEL-LINAC.
