  To perform experiments on the nanometer scale at high brilliant x-ray light sources, it is highly recommended to have the mechanical components of the experiment, like lenses, mirrors and samples, as stable as possible. Since these components need to move from nanometer up to millimeter range they cannot be stabilized by only using rigid structures. For that reason an active stabilization system with fast and precise sensors needs to be developed. Here a Laserinterferometer is used, which provides picometer resolution at several MHz sample rate. In this paper we will present a laboratory setup which consists of a 6-slot Micro Telecommunication Computing Architecture generation 4 (MTCA.4) crate with standard components such MicroTCA carrier hub (MCH), central processing unit (CPU), power supply (PS) and cooling unit (CU). The Interferometer application has been setup with Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) advanced mezzanine card (DAMC-FMC20) data processing unit, DESY Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) mezzanine card (DFMC-UNIO) universal input and output extension and DESY rear transition module (DRTM-PZT4) piezo driver. The encoder signals given by the interferometer controller are processed within the FPGA and then forwarded to the piezo amplifier RTM-board. The signal processing application includes decoding the digital feedback signal, calculating the coordinate transform for specific experimental setups and closed-loop operation based on a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. The first results of the laboratory setup are demonstrated and briefly discussed.

  The European X-Ray Free Electron Laser (E-XFEL) accelerator is a pulse machine. The typical time duration of a radio frequency (RF) pulse is about 1.3 ms. The RF power transmitted to the superconducting RF (SCRF) cavity as a set of successive pulses (10 Hz repetition rate), causes strong mechanical stresses inside the cavity. The mechanical deformations of the RF cavity are typically caused by the Lorentz force detuning (LFD). The cavity can be tuned to a 1.3 GHz resonance frequency during the RF pulse using fast piezo tuners. Since the E-XFEL will use around 800 cavities (each cavity with double piezos), a distributed architecture with multi-channel digital and analog control circuits seems to be essential. The most sought-after issue is high-voltage, high-current piezo driving circuit dedicated to multi-channel configuration. The driving electronics should allow a maximum piezo protection against any kind of failure. The careful automation of the piezo tuners control and its demonstration for the high gradient conditions a real challenge. The first demonstration of piezo controls applied for chosen RF stations of the E-XFEL linear accelerator (linac) are presented and obtained results are briefly discussed within this paper.

  In the paper we would like to present a new Micro Telecommunication Computing Architecture (MicroTCA) piezo driver (PZT4). The piezo driver module is capable of driving of 4 piezo actuators with high voltages up to 160 Vpp. It is also possible to measure cavity mechanical vibrations using 4 analog to digital converters (ADC) ported to the driver electronics. The new piezo driver can be supplied using internal 12 V payload power provided by the MicroTCA standard. For the applications that need more than 30 W of the input power, the external power supply module can be provided. In order to protect the piezo driver electronics against output short condition a dedicated supervision circuit is designed. The piezo driver module has been setup at Cryo Module Test Bench (CMTB) facility in Deutsches-Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY) as a part of the single cavity low-level radio frequency (LLRF) controls. The LLRF control system has been used to demonstrate the radio frequency (RF) field stabilization and cavity tuning capabilities for continuous (CW) and pulse modes of operation of 1.3 GHz superconducting resonant RF (SCRF) cavity. The preliminary results are demonstrated and briefly discussed.
