  For the SuperKEKB project, a new LLRF control system has been developed to realize high accuracy and flexibility. It is an FPGA-based digital RF feedback control system using 16-bit ADC's, which works on the μTCA platform. In this μTCA-module, the Linux-OS runs then it performs as the EPICS-IOC. This LLRF system is available to both of normal-conducting cavity and super-conducting cavity. A prototype of the LLRF control system for the SuperKEKB was produced. The feedback control stability, temperature characteristics and cavity-tuner control performance are evaluated. The evaluation results and future issue for the operation will be presented in this report. The amplitude and phase stability in the feedback control is 0.03% and 0.02 degrees, respectively. It is sufficiently stable for the SuperKEKB. However, the temperature dependency is not small for the required stability. Its countermeasures are under consideration.
