The MAX IV linac will be used both for injection and top up into two storage rings, and as a high brightness injector for a Short Pulse Facility (SPF). The linac has also been deigned to handle the high demands of an FEL injector. In the storage ring injection mode, the linac is operated at 10 Hz with a thermionic RF gun and the electron bunches are kicked out from the linac at either 3 GeV or 1.5 GeV to reach the respective storage ring. For the Short Pulse mode the linac will operate at 100 Hz with a high brightness photo cathode gun. Compression is done in two double achromats with positive R56 and the natural second order momentum compaction, T566, from the achromats is used together with weak sextupoles to linearise longitudinal phase space, leaving no need for a linearising harmonic cavity. The achromat design for bunch compression produces very short, high peak power electron pulses, while minimizing emittance increase. In this paper we present the MAX IV linac design and the status of commissioning which started in March 2014.
