  A high intensity ECR proton source with 14 GHz microwave heating was successfully developed at IMP. The idea of the working mechanism and the structure of the proton source, as well as using 14 GHz microwave heating, were first proposed in the world. The experimental platform was set up and preliminary commissioning was performed. The experimental results indicate that the source can produce a total of 4 mA CW hydrogen beams with microwave power of 200 W and extraction voltage of 40 kV, in which H2+ and H3+ are included. The successful commissioning of the proton source demonstrates that the proposed mechanism and the structure are feasible.
