  abstract     = {{The Compact X-ray Light Source (CXLS) uses inverse Compton scattering of a high intensity laser off a bright, relativistic electron beam to produce hard x-rays. The accelerator consists of a photoinjector and three standing-wave linac sections, which are powered by two 6-MW klystrons operating at 9.3 GHz with a repetition rate of 1 kHz. This paper presents the design and commissioning of the CXLS RF systems consisting of both high-power RF structures and low-power diagnostics. The high-power RF system is comprised of two solid state amplifier and klystron modulator sets, various directional couplers, and three phase shifter power dividers. The low-level system consists of a master oscillator and laser phase lock, IQ modulators, IQ demodulators, and downconverters. We present measurements of the low-level and high-power RF phase and amplitude stability showing RMS timing jitter in the tens of femtoseconds and amplitude jitter below 0.1% at high power.}},
