Worth noting: `lspci` will *not* help you if your device is USB, as the name suggests, it "lists" things that are on the PCI bus. While PCI _can_ exist on external sockets in the form of Thunderbolt (including over HDMI and USB-C), most serial programming cables I've seen are USB. Use `lsusb` for that.
