Abstract Electron beam ion source (EBIS) has been one of widely used table-top devices for the production of highly charged ions by electron impact ionization. An EBIS employs a magnetically compressed, high energy and density electron beam to sequentially ionize atoms or ions with a low charge state*. At KOMAC, we have a compact room-temperature operated EBIS. It is additionally constructed with a magnetic mass spectrometer and a Faraday Cup to measure charge spectra. Using this measurement setup, preliminary tests are performed to find suitable operational potentials in the EBIS for a stable production of highly charge ions. In future, we aim to build an EBIS based pre-injector with a radio frequency quadrupole. It has advantages of having a simple operation and a large number of ion species**. For this, we intend to improve and modify the current EBIS design to incorporate with existing setups at KOMAC.
