  Recent ADCs have wide analog band-width which is enough for direct sampling of the RF signal from a beam position monitor without down conversion. We employed such ADCs for our bunch-by-bunch signal processor* and performed the feedback with the direct RF sampling of the signal from a beam position monitor to detect the position of bunches. With RF direct sampling, the down conversion stage which is used in usual RF front-end circuits and is composed of mixers, filters, delays and base-band amplifiers is not necessary. This simplifies the systems, and reduces the costs and the number of the tuning parameters. The feedback system with RF direct sampling is now in operation at user mode in SPring-8.

  The design goal for the bunch-by-bunch analogue transverse feedback system at the Hefei Light Source (HLS) is to cure the transverse coupled bunch instabilities. The prototype implemented bunch-by-bunch feedback in 2006. Then we changed the circuit and replaced some components by ones of higher performance in order to get better effect. Diagnostic techniques are important tools to determine instabilities and to confirm the performance of the feedback systems. In addition to transverse feedback this system can provide online beam diagnostics and analysis in transverse and longitudinal directions. The diagnostic functions can record the response of every bunch while the feedback system manipulates the beam. The experimental results are presented.

  We performed the storage of high current singlet of 10mA/bunch and a train of bunches of 0.3mA/bunch under the bunch by bunch feedback systems with newly developed bunch current sensitive automatic attenuators with FPGA. The automatic attenuator reduces the signal level of the high current bunch by factor three to five to avoid the saturation of the feedback systems. With this system, the feedback systems suppress horizontal and vertical mode-coupling instabilities and raise the bunch current limit from 3.5mA/bunch to 12mA/bunch, and simultaneously the systems suppress the multi-bunch instabilities by resistive-wall and cavity higher order mode impedances. The improvement of the automatic attenuation system to fit to the final target of the bunch current in the train, 0.06mA/bunch, are being performed. The other problems which limit the filling patterns, such as saturation of the readout electronics of the beam position monitor system and the heating of vacuum components by high current bunches, will be briefly presented.
