Ye it is a bit weird. I did notice it but passed it off cos the
existing device was like that and there was a behavioural difference in
the driver between the two packages for the 4001. Maybe this fancy
picostarTM package is no longer a thing? Would really need to get
someone from TI to tell us what the plans are.
