From PDF Page 27 of the AWS Hardware Manual, Volume 1:

The CPU, FDC and HDC Boards in the AWS are heavily dependent upon programmable LSI circuits to perform their functions. Since the hardware functions and software interfaces of the LSI circuits are only briefly summarized in this Manual, users are likely to want occasional reference to the following manufacturers' literature:

The Central Processing Unit, Convergent Technologies, Inc.

(I have this book in print only, but it's basically a CT-internalized version of "The 8086 Primer by Steven P Morse")

Intel 8086 Family User's Manual

Intel Component Data Catalog

NEC Microcomputers, Inc., 1981 Catalog

Signetics 8X300 Reference Manual

8X300 Design Guide, Signetics Corporation

8X330 Floppy Disk Controller, Signetics Corporation

Not found, instead, reference

EuroMicro Journal 5, 1979 11-15 E.D van Veldhuizen
