Hi,

This is my first post to this forum. I have a reference oscillator of 12.7
MhZ, how do I generate the following frequencies using this oscillator

  16.863406408094434  Hz
  16.722408026755854
  16.694490818030051

  11.148272017837234
  10.405827263267431

I would need roughly a 0.01Hz frequency resolution. Would a fractional PLL
be a solution to this problem.

Most of the papers I have read deal with increasing the output freq to
several Mhz or Ghz for implementing a PLL. But this implementation of mine
requires to reduce the generated freqs, I would appreciate any help advice
 or some kind of code which would help me solve this problem.

Thanks

A PLL is not required for this problem. Have you read about direct
digital synthesis (DDS) or the numerically controlled oscillator
(NCO)? A DDS with a 32-bit phase accumulator should be capable of
0.003 Hz resolution at 12.7 MHz; to realize the frequencies you gave,
a 64-bit phase accumulator may be needed (7e-13 Hz resolution).
