Additional Details:

The XR567AM consists of a phase-locked loop (PLL), a quadrature phase detector, a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), and a loop filter. When an input signal within the detection bandwidth is present, the PLL locks onto the signal frequency. The quadrature phase detector then provides an output signal indicating the presence of the tone. The bandwidth and center frequency of the PLL can be adjusted using external components.

The output of the XR567AM is TTL/CMOS compatible, allowing for easy interfacing with digital logic circuits. The device is available in an 8-pin DIP package, making it easy to prototype and integrate into existing systems.
