The LLRF (Low-Level Radio Frequency) system optimizes energy transfer from the superconducting resonator to the accelerating beam. At ESS, one LLRF system regulates a single cavity. This digital system’s HW platform is the MTCA.4 standard. The system has been co-designed by ESS, Lund University, and the PEG (Polish Electronic Group) consortium. The PEG is also responsible for the system components design, evaluation, and production (like Local Oscillator Rear transition module, piezo tuner driver RTM, RTM carrier board, and others). The PEG delivers a HW/SW cavity simulator, an LLRF system test-stand, and provides necessary integration and installation services required for complete system preparation for the linac commissioning and operation phase. The paper summarizes the PEG work on the development and preparation of the LLRF systems for the ESS elliptical structures. The efforts concerning hardware and software components prototyping and evaluation are discussed. Moreover, we present the current status of the project, including components mass production, integration, and installation work.
