// high probable this MCU uses one of "fast Z80" cores, like ASCII R800, Kawasaki KC80 or similar, where clocks per instructions is much different from regular Z80.
// was made few attempts to measure CPU core clock using different methods (in term of "regular Z80" clock and cycles):
// - GPIO toggle in a loop - 13.499Mhz,
// - using UART as timer - 13.260MHz,
// - unrolled NOPs then GPIO toggle - 12.76MHz (or 3.19M NOP instructions per second)
// for now we use higher clock, otherwise earlier NAOMI BIOS revisions will not boot (see MT#06552).
