We've had some success decoding the various LSI chips found within the
IBM Displaywriter System, in this case the external 8-inch floppy
drive subsystem (IBM 6360), but one last chip has stumped us, or more
accurately stumped our Estonian colleague who was familiar with the
IBM to Intel part number mapping, see here:

Anyone with knowledge of how to implement the NEC D765D floppy disk
controller in a detached setup might be able to make a good guess as
to the function of the remaining 40-pin DIP IC (labelled 4430030) in
the picture?

is it another peripheral chip or perhaps a CPU? I'm guessing the
former since I don't see anything that might hold ROM code for a CPU.
The Intel 4178628 to the right is an Intel 8255A-5 (Programmable
Peripheral Interface (PPI)).
