It will provide one nanosecond proton pulses with a peak current of 7.7 A. The system guides nine linacμbunches deflected by a 5 MHz rf kicker and uses four dipole magnets - two homogeneous and two with field gradients - to merge them on the target. For longitudinal focusing and an energy variation of ±200 keV two multitrack rf cavities are included. ARMADILLO will be installed at the end of the Frankfurt Neutron Source FRANZ making use of the unique 250 kHz time structure. This contribution will provide an overview of the layout of the system as well as recent advances in component design and beam dynamics of the compressor.
