The IBM RT
mouse I have (Part No. OOF2383) is definitly a protocol
mouse, as it has a HD63A01XOF processor for two encoders and two

check out the wiring and protocol (if not propietary) later.
Interesting how BIG is the processor used! :oO I'm amazed!
For the time period, perhaps not so big. It's basically a 6800 with
embedded peripherals (timer, UART, etc.) Not much different from
today's low-end uC (PIC, 8051, AVR, etc.) I suspect that a fair
number of those pins are NC in this application.
If you want big, consider the same uC in its DIP incarnation--a 64
pin (0.050 spacing) DIP. I've got one somewhere.
