J-PARC LLRF system EPICS • cPCI digital FB system • generates LLRF signal (12 MHz, 48 MHz, 312 MHz and 324 MHz) • delivers I/Q modulated rf signals to 2 cavities • recieves rf signals from cavities and down-converts to IF • Fast hardwire interlock is connected to Pulse Modulator (outside cPCI). • Analog fast FB will be used for klystron FB loop. • Cavity-tuners are controlled from cPCI by way of PLC.
