Abstract :
To avoid emittance growth from transition crossing it is desirable that the low energy booster (LEB) have a transition energy well above its extraction energy or even imaginary. A number of lattices have been designed with this feature. Examples will be given along with the general principles underlying their design. One of the lattices has been tentatively chosen a a reference design.<>
