The link that I clicked on promised to take me to information on an Avago VCO. The front end thing is not a VCO, and does not even include a VCO.

That was bad spacing on my part in the newsletter. If you want to go to the VCO product review, actually click on the hyperlink word VCO. That will take you to the Z-Communications piece. Clicking on the word Avago brings you here. I'll be more careful with spacing in the future.

Do all the hard work and then get just 1$ per chip . Disheartening for a chip designer :( .
