More specifically, it is used for superconducting cavities fine tuning, synchronization of pulsed lasers and stabilization of fiber links. This paper briefly presents the designed system requirements and discusses the main hardware issues. The Piezo Driver performance measurements are also discussed. The first results of the prototype hardware usage for laser locking** to an external RF source and fiber link stabilization are summarized.
