It still seems to be used as branding by Avnet.

My rationale for using MSC Technologies is that is how the device is
described on the website as being a MSC device. I think the
amalgamation of the MSC website into Avnet's has happened in the last
year or so. I assume a new device released in the near future would be
branded more directly as an Avnet device, or maybe not, I see that the
i.MX 9 is being described as "MSC SM2S-IMX93".

I'll switch to msctech unless there are objections to that.
