Maybe they changed it to match exactly their company logo? Their company logo uses uppercase letters.

That wasn't always the case.
Some time in the mid-'90s they went from what you see above to "idt," then finally to IDT.

If you do a Google image search on "idt winchip" (sans quotes) you'll see a mixture of upper and lowercase logos.
