How do I know this 'core clock' actually exists? The more I hear
about it, the more I think the whole thing is somewhat bogus!
Pull the cap off the chip, and you should be able to find it by probing
the chip under a microscope.
How do I know what's inside a 7400 NAND? Maybe it's a bunch of hobbits
pushing cranks!
