Hi Randy,
 
the Micro's allow you to do other stuff, like discipline the OCXO as well  :)
 
BTW: I took a closer look at the Sparkfun board, the chip has a bunch more  
Match outputs than I thought.
 
The Philips parts have great counters/PWM units (driven by an internal PLL)  
for experiments.. The MSP430 should do the trick as well.
 
bye,

Thanks for the clue on the Philips part. Sounds like a  nice solution.

I just got a couple of sample parts from Maxim that I am  going to play
with (DS4000, MAX5121, and MAX6629). If they can do what  Maxim claims it
might be a fun experiment. I have one of those little TI  MSP430 dev kits
that I am going to try to use to run the show. We'll  see.

Randy
