This update provides information on the development of X-Band Cavity BPMs and the testing of receiver prototypes. The development phase is nearly complete, with prototypes assembled and tested successfully. Testing and qualification are ongoing, with production expected to begin soon.
E N D
X-Band Cavity BPM Development • Five X-Band Cavity BPM built and tested • Two qualified vendors for machined parts • Brazing procedure optimized to preserve tune • Tuning and testing procedures generated
Prototype BPMs for 3-BPM test • 4 BPMs built and tested to support 3-BPM testing • Design and technology mature
Port 1 Port 4 Port 2 Y-Port Port 3 Monopole mode X-Port Vertical dipole mode BPM Simulations • Cavity BPMs simulated in Microwave Studio, HFSS and Mafia • Test data indicates good agreement between simulated model and measured BPMs
Cavity Cold Test • Critical tuning experience gained • Test fixtures designed and built for tuning before brazing • Post braze tuning minimized by pre-tuning and controlling braze process • Good correlation between cold test and beam test
Tuning Pins Tuning Pins • Tuning pins improve performance and production yield • Tuning pins prototyped and tested • Tuning pin simulations verify measurements
Brazing Problems • Tuning Pins difficult to braze. • New braze fixtures designed and built • End Cap design being evaluated • Problems with window leaks • Window plating suspected
Cavity BPM Development • R&D phase of near completion • Testing phase II expected completed by end of July • Entering production phase
Receiver Development • X-Band down-converter developed from existing Miteq product • Modified to meet LCLS requirements • 3 channel receiver with common LO • 4 first article packaged receivers delivered and presently being tested
X-Band Receiver System Features • Input RF Power Surge Limiters • Input DC power regulation • High/Low gain feature (28/0dB) to extend dynamic range • Integrated self-test • Multi-mode operation with phase locked LO to control system or free-run mode
X-Band Receiver Packaging Design • Receiver enclosure 12.5 wide by 15 deep by 2.5 thick (inches) with integral heat sink • Houses input filters local oscillator and down-converter • 3-WR75 Inputs, 3-type “N” outputs, LO ref. input Type “N”, power and control cable
X-Band Receiver Chassis • Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) design • Local status interface indicators for power, operational mode, gain range, self-test • Integral heat sink and EMI chassis design
Receiver Electronics Development • R&D phase of near completion • Testing phase II expected completed by end of July • Test fixtures developed • Entering production phase
BPM Testing • Non-Vacuum Single BPM cold test unit complete 04/06 • (Phase I) test in APS Injector Test Stand complete 09/06 • (Phase II) 3-BPM test in APS LEUTL • Complete test matrix to prove compliance to specification • Testing phase II expected completed by end of July
LEUTL 3-BPM Test • PC gun installed and LEUTL tunnel commissioned • PC gun beam 325 MeV (400 pC) to dump • 33 Hor. and 23 Vert. micron normalized emittance • Compressed beam 1 ps bunch length
In-Tunnel Progress • 2-axis translation stage installed and tested provide sub-micron controllable horizontal and vertical motion • Multiple experiments presently conducted to verify operation • Testing ongoing
