Hi Garst and list,

I have played a little with the fet140_fll2.c example from the
TI fet tools package.

Using a freqency counter the DCO seems rock solid, but my
old Tek 210 dso don't like it, i suppose this has to with jitter.

As my power requirements arent that low, im using a HF crystal on XT2.

I hope this may help you a little.

Best regards,

Jens
