Description

The high current driver accelerator of the SPIRAL 2 project uses independently phased resonators working at 88 MHz. One RFQ, three normal conducting rebunchers and twelve and fourteen SC cavities of two different families have to be driven with amplifiers ranging from few to tens of kW, for a total installed RF power up to 750 kW. Solid state power amplifiers equipped with circulators are foreseen to drive the single cavities while 4 tube amplifiers are foreseen for the RFQ. The paper describes the present status of these devices.
