Abstract A compact isochronous cyclotron able to deliver a 10 mA proton beam has been studied for the IsoDAR experiment, which aim is to search sterile neutrino and to investigate the neutrino-electron scattering. The IsoDAR cyclotron has been designed to accelerate high current beam for any ion with q/A=0.5 up to the maximum energy of 60 AMeV. In the IsoDAR experiment H²⁺ ions will be used. However, this cyclotron is also able to accelerate D⁺ or D- ions. In this operational mode, it could be an excellent driver for radioactive facilities with a full beam power of 60 to 120 kW. The advantages to use IsoDAR cyclotron as driver for the RISP (Rare Isotope Science Project) facility in Daejeon, Korea, will be described. The different kinds of extraction by electrostatic deflectors and by stripper, as well as the different advantages and disadvantages will be described too. The expected beam intensities for light ions as 12C⁶⁺, 16O⁸⁺ and 20Ne¹⁰⁺ will be also presented.
