A few years ago, I was looking for something cheap to build a PIC based GHz counter and I stumbled over the LMX23xx chips from TI (PLL frequency synthesizers), which have a prescaler built in. Specifically the LMX2322 and LMX2364, which are quite cheap and easy to use (older ones available on eBay, the newer ones at your favorite distributor). http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lmx2364.pdf > I would actually like to find a kit but everything seems > a bit pricy. I have designed breakout boards for both, so if that looks like something which could be useful to you, just drop me a note and I'll make them available.
