AB - PAL-XFEL requires <100 fs synchronization of LLRF systems and optical lasers for stable operation and even lower jitter is favorable in higher performance and pump-probe experiments. The RF timing distribution system is based on a 476 MHz reference line, which is converted to 2.856 GHz at 16 locations over 1.5 km distance using phase-locked DRO. The 2.856 GHz signals are amplified and split to 10 outputs, which is connected to LLRFs, BAMs, and DCMs through low timing drift cables. The jitter between two different PLDRO units is estimated to ~1 fs from 1 Hz to 1 MHz. The synchronization jitter between a Ti:sapphire laser and the 2.856 GHz signal is measured less than 20 fs.
