Abstract :
A family of LSI frequency synthesizer circuits and their application to television and Citizen Band Radio are described. With a single crystal as the basic frequency reference, these circuits produce tuning accuracy and long term stability for a large number of frequencies at lower cost than for mechanical or crystal multiplexing methods.
