	Kicker-devices, also known as choppers, are of great interest for a multi-purpose electron accelerator like the ELBE at HZDR. They serve the following three main tasks: Firstly, they can be used to improve the time resolution for the positron beam line by removing certain parts of the bunch. As a second advantage they enable the machine to run two independent experiments at the same, as a chopper may split the beam into two separate parts. Lastly, a well-positioned kicker can reduce the dark current emitted by the SRF injector of the accelerator. Different designs for structures, deflecting the bunch in the beam line, have been simulated using CST Particle Studio. Here, no big difference to well-known strip line structures do exist. The next step is to design the supply electronics driving the kickers. As the ELBE accelerator runs at a high bunch repetition rate, the kicker has to keep up to this frequencies of up to 13 MHz. Hence, the high power levels needed for the operation may cause additional problems for the driver electronics. The poster is going to present the state of our development for all three tasks and our approaches to solve the corresponding challenges.

Kicker-devices, also known as choppers, are of great interest for a multi-purpose electron accelerator like the ELBE at HZDR.
