   In a previous life I used a dozen or 2 of AD9500 to control the   
   phase delays in a phased array to sweep the direction of the   
   ultrasonic beam for scanning the inner enclosure of nuclear reactors.   
      
   Worked nicely. In the lab, it was set up by a HP-85 desk top   
   computer via HP-IB.   
      
   25 years later some SY89??? chips to delay a 1pps at will with   
   ps resolution and CML levels. No complaints.
