After LCLS-I suc­cess­fully de­liv­er­ing the full op­er­a­tion for users, SLAC has been ap­proved to build the sec­ond Linac Co­her­ent Light Source, LCLS-II, which makes use of an­other third of the 2-mile long Linac from Sec­tor 10 to Sec­tor20. The LLRF Sys­tem will use mTCA (Micro Telecom­mu­ni­ca­tion Com­put­ing Ar­chi­tec­ture) to re­place the VME sys­tem for LCLS-II in­jec­tor and some key sta­tions along the LINAC. The faster data ac­qui­si­tion and more pow­er­ful FPGA and CPU in the mTCA sys­tem en­able the LLRF sys­tem to ex­tend its con­trol abil­ity to a 2.5 μsec beam pulse rate of 360Hz. The new LLRF sys­tem is more com­pact and has the ca­pa­bil­ity of low la­tency in­tra-pulse feed­back to re­duce fast phase and am­pli­tude jit­ter dur­ing a sin­gle pulse. The pro­to­type of the mTCA based LLRF con­trol sys­tem has been op­er­at­ing at RF sta­tion 28-2 in LCLS-I. De­tailed de­sign struc­ture and the pro­to­type ex­per­i­men­tal re­sults will be pre­sented that demon­strate the sys­tem meets the ex­act­ing phase and am­pli­tude sta­bil­ity re­quire­ments for LCLS-II.
