Hi: Awhile ago there was some discussion about the ICS525 and I finally got a quote on their demo board it was $57 and 10 weeks. Well it's been less than 10 weeks and I've made my own, with more features than the stock version. There's been some delay getting all the stuff to do fine pitch Surface Mount Parts, see: http://www.pacificsites.com/~brooke/SMT.shtml Version 1.0 has the ICS525-02 (160 MHz max out) a couple of 10 position SIP switches, a power supply including snaps for a 9 volt battery and a 14 pin socket that will hold either a full or half size DIP oscillator. There's also a BNC input connector that can supply the chip instead of the DIP oscillator. BNC output connector.

Data Sheet for ICS525: http://www.icst.com/datasheets/ics5250102.pdf When using the calculator be sure to scroll down to the results for the high speed -02 version, see: http://www.icst.com/calculators/ics525inputForm.html For now I'm calling it the Battery Top Signal Generator, but it might have numerous uses. Is there any interest in my making more of these to sell?
