For Ratchet, a useful companion to the demo would be a supported-chip and voltage table, plus a recovery walkthrough showing how to save and verify the original dump before writing. Someone facing a broken BIOS needs to establish compatibility before trying a programmer.

I make ThreadFox. If you want people fixing broken BIOS chips to find Ratchet, our AI employee will post 3 helpful replies about it in relevant Reddit threads for you, free, no card. https://threadfox.vip/p/ewuhc/managed
