I'm pretty sure they were Motorola parts. As I
told Geoffrey, it has
been a very long time - like probably 40 years - and I've forgotten a
lot of the details, and just sort of remember the pain. I think the
ACIA would somehow get into a state where it would not pay attention to
the master reset command.
I don't recall that ever happening to me, but I can well believe it :-)
