It has been three decades since the research and development of key technologies and components started at the Institute of Fluid Physics, CAEP, for the linear induction accelerator (LIA). The first LIA was built in 1989 with beam parameters of 1.5 MeV, 3 kA and pulse width of 90 ns. Later the SG-I LIA (3.3 MeV, 2 kA, 90 ns) was developed for FEL in 1991. The first Linear Induction Accelerator X-Ray Facility (LIAXF, 10 MeV, 2 kA, 90 ns, spot size about 6 mm in diameter) was built in 1993 and upgraded to 12 MeV with higher performance (LIAXFU, 12 MeV, 2.5 kA, 90 ns, spot size about 4 mm in diameter) in 1995. The Dragon-I LIA with the best quality (20 MeV, 2.5 kA, 80 ns, spot size about 1 mm in diameter) in the world was finished in 2003. The smallest LIA with double pulses separated by 300 ns (MiniLIA, 200 keV, 1 A, 80 ns) was developed in 2007 for beam physics studies.
