With new hardware, it may be impossible to secure
proper documentation
and it may be difficult to impossible to decipher what's happening
inside of such tiny chips.
Not completely on-topic, but a recent acquisition by the school had a
schematic in the so-called "user's manual" that dutifully showed all
the interconnections to the black-box ASICs and the 2 or 3 transistors
(and handful of passives). All in a 4" square area.
