Gazing at SuperKEKB project, a new control subsystem was designed and implemented to upgrade the low level RF system of the KEKB accelerator based on Experimental and Industrial Control System (EPICS). The new control subsystem comprises a uTCA, a PLC, and an industrial PC. Each card plugged in the uTCA chassis and the PLC function as an embedded Input / Output Controller (IOC) by running the EPICS core program on the Linux operating system. The industrial PC runs Extensible Display Manger on Linux to serve as an Operator Interface (OPI). This paper describes the details of the design and the implementation of the fully embedded EPICS-based low level RF control subsystem for SuperKEKB.
