Description

The new RFSoC-based advanced BxB was installed after the beam test and provided advanced capabilities for measuring BxB beam transients, multi-bunch coupling, injection transient, efficiency, ion instability detection, and single/multi-bunch motion analysis.
For BxB BPM integration, the control system employed high-performance IOCs and clients based on a hypervisor virtual machine (VM) system. The VMware Type-1 bear-metal hypervisor supports NSLS-II accelerator control IOCs and clients.
In this talk, I will introduce the new BxB hardware architecture, FPGA data processing, beam performance measurement results, and VM IOC and EPICS interfaces for the NSLS-II control system.
