This article presents a prototype of beam position and phase measurement(BPPM)electronics designed for the LINAC in China Accelerator Driven Sub-critical system(ADS).The signals received from the Beam Position Monitor(BPM)detectors are narrow pulses with a repetition frequency of 162.5 MHz and a dynamic range more than40 dB.Based on the high-speed high-resolution Analog-to-Digital conversion technique,the input RF signals are directly converted to In-phase and Quadrature-phase(IQ)streams through under-sampling,which simplifies both the analog and digital processing circuits.All signal processing is integrated in one single FPGA,in which real-time beam position,phase and current can be obtained.A series of simulations and tests have been conducted to evaluate the performance.Initial test results indicate that this prototype achieves a phase resolution better than 0.1 degree and a position resolution better than 20μm over a 40 dB dynamic range with the bandwidth of 780 kHz,which is well beyond the application requirements.
Beam measurement is very important for accelerators. In this paper, modern digital beam measurement techniques based on I Q（In-phase ＆ Quadrature-phase） analysis are discussed. Based on this method and highspeed high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion, we have completed three beam measurement electronics systems designed for the China Spallation Neutron Source（CSNS）, Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility（SSRF）, and Accelerator Driven Sub-critical system（ADS）. Core techniques of hardware design and real-time system calibration are discussed, and performance test results of these three instruments are also presented.
