We normally name things with a combination of brand and chip number.
Lots of companies could have chips with PCI in the name,
but the CMD64x designator makes it quite clear what we're dealing with here.
In the machines I have here with these chips,
they are clearly labelled as "CMD" and then "PCI646.."
