	A prototype wideband High-Level RF (HLRF) sys-tem based on Finemet metal alloy has been installed in CERN's PS Booster (PSB) Ring 4 in 2012, within the frame of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project. A digital Low-Level RF (LLRF) system was used to control the HLRF system to ascertain the capabilities of the combined system, especially under heavy beam loading. The testing campaign was satisfactory and in 2015 the CERN management decided to replace all ferrite-based systems with Finemet ones for the PS Booster restart in 2020. This paper describes the LLRF features implemented for operating the wideband HLRF system and the main beam results obtained. Hints on the LLRF evolution in view of the PSB HLRF renovation are also given.

THPAB142	Initial Beam Results of CERN ELENA's Digital Low-Level RF System	LLRF, operation, diagnostics, extraction	4054

	The Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) decelerator is under commissioning at CERN. This decelerator is equipped with a new digital low-level RF (LLRF) system, in-house developed and belonging to the LLRF family already deployed in CERN's PS Booster and Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR) synchrotrons. New features to adapt it to the demanding requirements of ELENA's operation include new, low noise ADC daughtercards and a fixed-frequency clocking scheme. This paper gives an overview of the LLRF system; initial beam results are also shown together with hints on the future system upgrade.

	The four rings of CERN's PS Booster have been equipped in 2014 with a new digital low-level RF (LLRF) system based upon a new, in-house developed LLRF family. This is a second-generation LLRF family that has been since then deployed on other synchrotrons. The paper provides an overview of the system's commissioning and first years of operation. In particular, an overview is given of the main system features and capabilities, such as beam loops and longitudinal beam blowup implementation. Operational improvements with respect to the previous, analogue digital LLRF are also mentioned, together with the planned system evolution to satisfy new requirements.

	CERN's Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR) low-level RF (LLRF) system has been successfully upgraded in 2016 to the new digital, LLRF family for frequency-sweeping synchrotrons developed at CERN. For LEIR it implements not only beam loops but also the voltage and phase loops required for the control of two Finemet-based High-Level RF (HLRF) systems. This paper gives an overview of the system and of new requirements implemented, such as the parallel operation of two HLRF systems. Beam results for the 2016 lead ions run are also shown.
