Is there some really
interesting documentation available for these
chips and maybe some microcode for some really simple task? I'd like
to really understand how bit-slice CPUs do work to form something like
a VAX CPU.
At the application-specific level, the classic reference
is "Mick and Brick". I think there's a PDF floating around on the web
but I don't know exactly where.
Thanks for that hint; I've just ordered my personal version.
