  Booster synchrotron for the Taiwan photon source project which is a 3 GeV synchrotron light source constructed at NSRRC is in commissioning. The booster is designed to ramp electron beams from 150 MeV to 3 GeV in 3 Hz therefore the large main power supplies have features of waveform play with trigger functionalities to enable electron beams ramp from 150 MeV to 3 GeV in 3 Hz. However, due to limited bandwidth of power supplies, different magnet loading will result in quite different phase lag for dipoles and four quadrupoles families. To improve tracking error between quadrupole to dipole readings, several strategies are developed and will be summarized in this report.

  To investigate the beam loss and its distribution during operation of synchrotron light sources at NSSRC, a sixteen-channel readout box is designed and implemented to read the threshold voltage of the RadFETs installed at accelerator tunnel. To simplify the design, the reader plays a role of remote I/O for EPICS IOC. The IOC collects voltage from readers distributed in the accelerator to deduce the integrated dose and dose rate. User interface is shown in the control console for real-time display and the archived data are processed off-line.

  The global orbit feedback for the 1.5 GeV electron storage ring of TLS has been operated more than ten years. This system uses general processors to control feedback loop with 1 kHz rate. It is very important for various operation of storage ring now, but some hardware components could have been out of stock in the future. As a prototype, a FPGA based fast global orbit feedback at a 10 kHz data acquisition rate has been developed. A micro-TCA liked platform with FPGA board is used to implement control algorithm and acquire BPM data from Libera Brillance. The correction algorithm is written in VHDL and connected to power supply with AURORA digital links. The system architecture will be discussed in this report.

  Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a third generation 3 GeV synchrotron light facility. The synchrotron radiation from a dipole can be used to observe the beam parameters. The synchrotron radiation monitor (SRM) systems were designed and implemented for the booster synchrotron and storage ring. The SRM for the booster synchrotron can serve to diagnose the energy ramping process. The beam size decreases when the energy increases was observed. In the storage ring, the streak camera was preferred to observe the beam behaviour of the consecutive bunches. The bunch length and longitudinal instability were observed. The preliminary beam test results are summarized in this report.

  Taiwan photon source is a 3rd generation synchrotron light source which is in beam commissioning at NSRRC. Orbit stability within 100 nm range is essential for such a small emittance light source. Technical noise from the vacuum pumps, water flow, etc. will cause the vibration of quadrupoles and deleterious orbit stability. In order to investigate the magnitude of vibration in the magnets of the storage ring, the vibration spectra of the lattice quadruples; the coherence between the magnets, girders and ground will be systematic investigated in this report.

  The TLS (Taiwan Light Source) is a third generation of synchrotron light source, and it has been operated since 1993. The TLS control system is a proprietary design. It was performed minor upgrade several times to avoid obsolete of some system components and keep up-to-date during last two decades. The control system of the TPS project (Taiwan Photon Source) is based upon the EPICS framework. To save resources for TLS control system maintenance, adopt EPICS for newly developed and rejuvenated subsystems for some of the TLS control interfaces includes BPM system, insertion devices, bunch-by-bunch feedbacks, electronics instruments interface and so on. Some EPICS related applications have been developed, and EPICS graphical user interface is also operated at the TLS control consoles environment normally. Current system allowed two kinds of control environments working together. The efforts will be described at this report.

  The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) 150 MeV linac has been relocated from its 2011 test site to the TPS linac tunnel in 2014. After functional test of the linac hardware modules, the beam parameters were carefully examined at a 31-degree bend diagnostic beam line LTD (linac to beam dump) and compared with previous results. Then, the 150 MeV electron beam was delivered to the linac to booster transfer line (LTB) for beam commissioning. The beam optics matching at both the LTB entrance (i.e. linac exit) and the LTB exit (i.e. injection point of booster) was performed for injection optimization purpose. The LTB lattice setting was verified in the beam steering through LTD and LTB with the help of diagnostics tools such as beam profile monitors (SM) and beam position monitors (BPM). The overall performance of the linac and LTB will be described in this report.

  The TPS LTB injection kicker was first commissioned using PFN pulser equipped with thyratron switch. Although its bench-testing results fulfilled the specifications but the performance was degraded due to unavoidable integration difficulty. After evaluating a couple of improvement options in hand, a pulser using IGBT switch was chosen for off-the-bench beneficial purpose. The upgraded pulser satisfies the overall specifications with comfortable margins. Some major performance parameters such as flattop and tail ringing are emphasized concerning their influence on beam injection. This report describes the field-testing result of this IGBT pulser.

  TPS is a third generation 3 GeV synchrotron light source under commission in Taiwan. The TPS Booster ring is concentric ring design sharing the same tunnel with storage ring. The booster ring power supplies are responsible of accelerating the 150 MeV Linac output energy to 3 GeV before the beam is preserved in the storage ring. The booster ring power supplies are required to operate at 3Hz sinusoidal waveform with 1000 A peak current for the dipole magnet. All power supplies' specifications and output performance are demonstrated here in this paper.

  In TPS (Taiwan Photon Source) project, 58 home-built small form factor bipolar power supplies are used to fine-tune the trim coil of booster ring bending dipole magnets. With the preliminary analog PI control loop design version, current output will tend to behave with poor linearity around zero current. By employing DSP chip, a full digital PI control loop design together with optimal MOSFT switching algorithm and 13bits PWM output capability is capable of improving the output current performance around zero current. Before the final realization, MATLAB SIMULINK is utilized to find out the optimal MOSFT switching algorithm, and then physical circuit is implemented and tested. The result and design will be demonstrated in this paper to show significant improvement around zero current.
