  For the SuperKEKB project, a new LLRF control system was 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. The FPGA boards control accelerating cavity fields and cavity tuning, and the EPICS-IOC is embedded in each of them. The CSS-BOY was adopted for a user interface of our system. High power test of the new LLRF control system was performed with the ARES Cavity of KEKB. The obtained feedback control stability with a klystron drive was sufficient as well as the low-level evaluation result. And auto tuner control also worded successfully. The start-up sequencer program for the cavity operation and auto-aging program also worked very well. The temperature characteristics of the system depend largely on band-pass filters (BPF). We tried to tune the BPF to reduce the temperature coefficient. Consequently the temperature dependence was improved to satisfy the required stability.

  We have developed and manufactured CW 1.2 MW high power water-load for the use of the Super KEKB, an electron – positron double-ring collider at KEK. The tank and rf window of the water-load is the circular and cylindrical-type. The material to absorb the rf power is a tap water. This load is equipped on the 3rd port of the circulators to safe the 1.2 MW CW klystrons to drive the ARES cavities in main ring. The operational frequency is 508.9 MHz. A proto-type model of this water-load was fabricated at Sep 2012, and tested using by high power klystron (1 MW) at Oct 2012 at KEK D2-ET station. The result of high power test will be reported in this paper.
