Abstract The analog low level RF (LLRF) control system of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center is being upgraded to a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based digital system (DLLRF). In this paper we give an overview of the FPGA design and the overall DLLRF system. We also present preliminary performance measurements including results utilizing model-independent iterative feedforward for beam-loading transient minimization, which is being studied for utilization in the future MaRIE X-FEL, which will face difficult beam loading conditions.
