Phase Detector for BPSK transceiver

Hii all

I'm trying to make a BPSK transceivers,and some friend told me that the receiver need a phase detector.
Where must i put the detector?,and What kind of IC's that i could use to make the detector?,Is it true that Motorolla MC1496 can be made as a phase detector?

thanks

MC1496 can be used as a Product detector, AM detector, FM and Phase detector and also as a modulator:

The place of the detector in a receiver system, usually is after the last IF stage.

can u tell me the maximum operating frequency range for MC1496

50MHz
