  One 12kW RF power supply has been developed for CYCHU-10, which is a 10 MeV cyclotron developed in Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). A high performance DDS chip AD9859 is used to synthesize RF signal in this power supply, which is easy to change the output frequency. The centre frequency is 101MHz, and the frequency bandwidth is more than 1MHz. The RF power supply could operate in fine searching mode, coarse searching mode, tracking mode, and so on. It could search the resonant frequency of cavity with the frequency control loop. The final stage amplifier using a triode 3CW20,000H7 operates in grounded grid configuration, which is stable and reliable. The performance test using a 50Ω resistor load has finished, and major results are shown in this paper.
