With the current state of the synchronization system at FLASH (Free-electron Laser in Hamburg) the arrival time between electron bunches and optical laser pulses can be synchronized to a level of 30 fs rms, e.g. for pump-probe experiments. In the course of the development of an up-scaled system for the European XFEL and the migration of control hardware to the modern MTCA.4 (Micro Telecommunications Computing Architecture) platform, all involved components of the system will be replaced with new developments. The front-end devices are upgraded. FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) are performing the data processing and feedback calculations. In order to facilitate the firmware development, a toolset (Rapid-X) was established which allows application engineers to develop, simulate, and generate their code without help from FPGA experts in a simple and efficient way. A software tool kit (MTCA4U) provides drivers and tools for direct register access e.g. via Matlab or Python and a control system adapter, which allows the server applications to be written control system independent. In this paper, an overview on the synchronization setups and their upgrades as well as an introduction to the new hardware is given. The Rapid-X and MTCA4U tool kits are presented followed by a status report on the implementation of the new developments.

  The accelerator needs a high stable magnet power supply(MPS) with low noise output. The stability requirements of the some MPSs in accelerator were in the range of the ~10 ppm. There are many noise sources which affect the stability of MPS. Thus the design of the MPS requests much attention on the noise reduction scheme from the beginning stage. The noise on the MPS divided into some sources such as the ripple voltage coming from rectifier for the DC link, switching noise at the FET or IGBT on the high voltage, noise coming digital logics around DSP and its peripheral circuits, ground matters on the analogue signal process and so on. This paper analyzed the noise sources and described the way how to build the low noise power supply.

  Monitoring and subsequent optimization of the electron linacs and beam transfers requires specific instrumentation for beam position data acquisition and processing. Spark EL is the newly developed prototype intended for position monitoring in single or multi bunch operation linacs and transfer lines. The motivation, processing principles and first results are presented.
