  The digital accelerator (DA), which is a small-scale induction synchrotron no requiring a high-energy injector accelerator and capable of providing a wide variety of ions, has been constructed at KEK*. Since the last winter beam commissioning has been carried out. Preliminary results of the beam commissioning experiment as well as the accelerator itself will be presented at the conference. The KEK-DA consists of a 200 kV high voltage terminal, in which an ECRIS is embedded, 15 m long LEBT, electro-static injection kicker, and a 10 Hz rapid cycle synchrotron, which is the recycle use of the former 500 MeV Booster synchrotron. An ion pulse, which is chopped in 5 μs by the newly developed Marx generator driven chopper**, is guided through the LEBT and injected by the electrostatic kicker, which is turned off before the injected ion pulse completes the first turn. Then the ion pulse is captured with a pair of barrier voltages and accelerated with the induction acceleration voltage through a full acceleration period. Beam commissioning has been started with a He1+ ion beam of 50 micro-ampere. Beam commissioning of other ions such as C, N, O, Ne, and Ar will be expected.

  The rapid-cycling synchrotron of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex requires 18 sextupole magnets with three families for the chromaticity correction. One family consists of six focusing sextupole magnets, and other two families consist of six defocusing sextupole magnts. An individual power supply excited for each family and the current pattern is a DC-biased sinusoidal of a frequency of 25 Hz. This paper describes design and test results of the sextupole magnet power supplies.
