Graph shows frequency over time - why do you think it has a ~3 minute oscillation? What if I tell you the signal comes from a skull shaped ring oscillator? This open source silicon is currently sending data from low earth orbit, 500km up! And the satellite is slowly spinning!

This is the moment Rej's open source Z80 woke up and said hello! After Zilog’s April 2024 announcement, ReJ quickly taped out a drop-in replacement to preserve retrocomputing and legacy systems. Taped out on TT07, it's a landmark in democratizing chip design.
