This has some of their classic papers. As well as a lot more.

And his previous 1999 collection would be a good read as well.

Actually, depending on what you're doing, the online simulators at
http://www.wireless.national.com and
http://www.analog.com/analog_root/static/designCenter/rfif/design.html
may be all you need.

Roland Best's book is very good. Ulrich Rohde's "Microwave and Wireless
Synthesizers" comes under a lot of criticism, but I like it for its
discussion of real-world receivers and test equipment. It is neither a
user-friendly cookbook or a heartbreaking work of staggering technical
genius, but it's still worth owning.

Gardner or Best

Although I hate feeding Jim's over-developed ego, I do have to endorse
one of his choices. I've got a copy of Floyd M. Gardner's "Phaselock
Techniques" ISBN 0-471-04294-3. My copy is around fifteen years old - a
copy of the second edition, first published in 1979, but since it is a
largely mathematical discussion of the subject, it has aged pretty
well. I've always found it very useful.

I've not used Phase-Locked Loops : Design, Simulation, and Applications
by Roland E. Best (ISBN: 0071412018) but the reviews do suggest that it
is less mathematical and more accessible.

Amazon offers 25 copies of Gardner and and only about a dozen of Best.
