Has anybody out there used it?
Are there hidden surprises?

The AD9901 is old. I used one in a 20 MHz loop about 20 years ago with no
problem.
However my testing was limited.

I have two in dip packages ( 20 years old) that you can have.

I've used them in a number of designs, worked fine!

I designed a PLL that uses the AD9901 about 20 years ago for the Atacama Large Millimeter Array Radio Interferometer.  It is still in use today and is used to lock all the microwave LOs in the telescopes.  Over 700 in use today.

Oh, thanks for the offer, but I have enough of them in PLCC and DIP. :-)

I had made a VHDL translation, strictly following the AD data sheet.
Also included some prescaling and local 1pps generation.
The execution vehicle was a Xilinx Coolrunner2 CPLD which is end of life
now,
so I need a new CPLD and it's a good opportunity to compare performance.

The souped-up 4046 with backlash correction all seem to have gone.

best regards, Gerhard

"The souped-up 4046 with backlash correction all seem to have gone." ->
time to translate them to VHDL too.
