ermm if it so...wouldnt it occilate at a TOO high frequency....i mean why
makr want to use this there must be a special reason right...or do u think
this is his past work and after considering both bicore and microcore and
power consuming and occilate at a TOO high frequency that now he is making
what u might call it a 'poppernet'....might make some sense though..well
anyway i am going to build one DOF head mechanism with a microcore and
experiment a bit ....if anything goes wrong would u mind for me to come to
you for the answer
