The possibilities and methods for higher energy injection at CAMD have been discussed previously. All components of the former HELIOS 1 linac have now been transferred to CAMD from Jefferson Laboratory. It is planned to reconfigure the CAMD injector linac by installing one of the HELIOS accelerating sections in addition to the two existing CAMD sections, thereby increasing the energy to 300MeV. The optimum arrangement for installing the 300 MeV linac in the existing tunnel has been established. Meanwhile, the arrangements and upgrades of sub-systems are being prepared, simulations of the electron beam trajectory by MATLAB based linear accelerator program are being made, and recommissioning the major HELIOS linac components is underway. In the paper, the detailed technical design of the 300 MeV linac is proposed, the key parameters of the linac are presented, and the benefits of 300 MeV injection to the CAMD synchrotron radiation light source are mentioned.
