Description

Diamond-II will require two types of stripline kickers during normal operation: the kicker actuators for the transverse multibunch feedback system; and the injection stripline kickers which enable transparent injection. Both are very similar in design as they need to kick individual bunches without disturbing the following bunches. The main difference is the voltage requirements. The feedback kicker is expected to be driven with a maximum peak voltage of ~1.4 kV using a broadband power amplifier, whereas the injection stripline kicker is driven with a trapezoid voltage signal with a maximum peak voltage of 20 kV using a dedicated power supply. This paper will describe the design and prototyping for both stripline kickers along with discussion of the required steps to get to final designs for each type.
