  We introduce the RF Phase Shifter (RPS) developed in the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory X-ray Free-Electron Laser (PAL-XFEL) to control the timing of optical laser system. This equipment is designed to finely adjust the timing of laser pulses with femtosecond scale by manipulating the phase of the RF reference using a couple of Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) devices. Furthermore, it is designed with low phase noise and low phase drift features in order to minimize the impact on the system in an open-loop operation. Currently these units are installed at the Injection site, Hard X-ray and Soft X-ray Beamline. They are implemented for the feedback control of the photocathode gun phase at the Injector and for the use in pump-probe experiments at the Beamlines. This paper describes the design, fabrication, and experimental results of the RPS, as well as its usage status at PAL-XFEL.
