The LMC567 device is a low-power, general-purpose LMCMOS tone decoder which is
functionally similar to the industry standard LM567. The device consists of a twice frequency
voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and quadrature dividers which establish the reference signals
for phase and amplitude detectors.
The phase detector and VCO form a phase-locked loop (PLL) which locks to an input signal
frequency which is within the control range of the VCO. When the PLL is locked and the input signal
amplitude exceeds an internally pre-set threshold, a switch to ground is activated on the output
pin. External components set up the oscillator to run at twice the input frequency and determine
the phase and amplitude filter time constants.
