Storage ring cavities : DAMPY Nose cones cavity with ferrite loaded dampers. The contract was signed in April 2006 with ACCEL for 7 identical pieces including girders, dampers, input windows and tuners. The CELLS prototype delivery is scheduled for January 2007. ALBA RF System 8/21
Dampy : modifications 2 spacers have been added to the girder to support the ridged waveguides. The wedges on which ferrite tiles are brazed can be taken apart without removing the whole damper. Vacuum gauge and a sapphire window at the end of one waveguide ALBA RF System 9/21
Booster cavity 5 cells cavity operating in π mode very similar to PETRA cavities. The contract was signed in April with ACCEL. The design report was approved in September 2007. Delivery is scheduled for January 2007. ALBA RF System 10/21

LLRF Analog prototype The ALLRF prototype has been successfully tested with a mock-up cavity. The measured group delay of the low-level electronics is 500 ns. The noise level is better than what we had specified (i.e. 1% and 1 ). A LLRF bandwidth of 1 MHz and a dynamic range of >23 db have been achieved. ALBA RF System 14/21
