Abstract :
The magnetic alloy loaded radio-frequency system has been installed in the KEK 12 GeV synchrotron. This system is a high field gradient radio-frequency system and is designed to operate not only as a fundamental harmonic system to increase the insufficient matching voltage, supplied by 4 conventional ferrite cavities but also as a second radiofrequency system to alleviate the space charge effects during beam injection. Digital signal processing is the technique to process the continuous machine or beam signals and to couple with a direct digital synthesis, which is the way to generate a phase controlled precise frequency signal. Both techniques are indispensable for the low-level radio-frequency controls of a complex system. Developments of DDS based radio-frequency signal generator and digital phase detector and related ADC modules have been started for this new MA radio-frequency system. The details of R&D equipments are going to be reported
