Interesting chip. It's quite literally almost an entire standard function generator on one chip, with a bandwidth far exceeding some similar chips. Whether it's actually better than those from the 80s, I'm not sure. Both HP and Philips used to use ASICs -- pretty much just matched diode arrays -- for their sine shaping, and that's about the most critical part in this kind of generator.
