[sdiy] 4046 VCO overclocking a PIC

[Richie Burnett]

Tom, are the pics with PLL clock multiplication happy with the input frequency going right down to DC?  I know the VCO in  the Dspic's PLL has quite a small locking range. Like just one octave if I remember correctly :-(

You told me about a pic with an NCO module built in once. Have you done any experiments with that?

-Richie,
