Jim Williams, in discussing the ROYER pin on the CCFL power-supply chips from
Linear Tech, once commented that "Local historians can't be certain, but this
may be the only IC pin ever named after a person."   Other people have pointed
out the ZENER pin on the CD4046 PLL chip and the KELVIN pin on the CAT2300
switch controller.  Are they any other examples?
