| Abstract |
The 1.6 GeV booster synchrotron of the ELSA facility at the University of Bonn uses a DESY-type RF resonator which has been driven by a conventional klystron amplifier since its early days in 1967. The setup was modified to serve the ELSA stretcher ring as booster synchrotron in 1987, but the RF infrastructure was barely altered. As repairs of the reliable, but antiquated RF source became foreseeingly impossible due to the lack of spare part availability, the replacement of the klystron amplifier chain in favour of a state-of-the-art solid state amplifier was carried out. We describe the replacement and the operation experience with the new RF power amplifier.
