I wouldn't have thought a TMS9995 was worth faking, but this "new"
part I got on ebay has the worst logo I've ever seen.
In fact, it's so bad, I started wondering if it is OK, somehow? |

and a chunk missing out of the plastic, and dated 2013?
Thats gotta be a fake LOL
It is also possible its a 9995 that got new clean markings added (Chinese have been known to 'refurbish' in this way
I dont think TI MADE 9995s in 2013
