  The amplitude and the phase stabilities of the RF system play an important role for the cavity of a high intensity proton accelerator. For the J-PARC Linac, the accelerating field ambiguity must be maintained within ±1% in amplitude and ±1 degree in phase due to the momentum acceptance of the next synchrotron. To realize the requirement, a digital feedback (FB) control is used in the low level RF (LLRF) control system, and a feed-forward (FF) technique is combined with the FB control for the beam loading compensation. The stability of ±0.2% in amplitude and ±0.2 degree in phase of the cavity was achieved including the beam loading in a macro pulse. Additionally, the cavity phase monitors, which can measure the phase difference between any two cavities, were installed in summer, 2011. The monitor has the three different types, which are for the present 324-MHz RF system, the 972-MHz RF system and the combined system of 324-MHz RF and 972-MHz RF. The phase monitor for the 324-MHz RF has been in operated since Dec. 2011. We would like to introduce the phase monitor and indicate the phase stability at the J-PARC linac.
