A general-purpose processor that can be modified for a range of tasks via firmware upload. Because these chips are found in almost all types of augmentation and are capable of such a wide range of functionality, they are known to be a prime target for illegal augmentation modification. Stem chip "locking" (adding layers of security) for these chips became a large industry in and of itself. They can be sold to most merchants.
