Would any of these be good choices:

M7940 serial line unit
M8028 asynchronous line interface

I have these boards:
M8044DE 32K 18 bit mos mem
M8044DM 32K 18 bit mos mem
plus a pair of non-dec boards, different manufacturers, 4 rows of 4116
chips, 8 per row.

The M8044's say how much memory they contain, on the back of the circuit
board. Let me know if you need any of this stuff. I have 4 M7270 LSI-11
cpu boards as well.
