  The 2.45 GHz Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS) has been indigenously developed. This development of ECRIS aims to provide high brightness, stable, and reliable D+ ion beam of 20 mA beam current in a continuous (CW) mode operation for an accelerator-based D-T neutron generator. The ECR ion source setup consists of a microwave system, a magnet system, a double wall water-cooled plasma chamber, a high voltage platform, a three-electrode ion extraction system, and a vacuum system. The ECR ion source test setup is installed, and the deuterium plasma is generated. A three-electrode extraction system is designed and fabricated for the ion beam extraction. A ~10 mA deuterium ion beam is extracted from the ECR ion source. The paper covers the detailed experimental setup of ion beam characterization and diagnostics used for measurement of beam profile, beam current, and beam emittance measurements. It also covers the latest results of beam emittance measurements.
