Hi

What are you trying to do? There are many people out there making PLL chips
with various features. National and Analog are the two most commonly used
for most RF applications.

I'm in need of a PLL too.  Is there a common part that is better than
the 4046?  I assume there must be.    Not for high precision work.

probably be counterproductive as its phase noise is very high (its in effect
an RC oscillator with an effective Q of around1/4)

building one would prove its feasibility.
