I think they were multibus only. I recall one very large (64-pin,
maybe) DIP on the board, maybe one of those fancy TRW high-speed
multipliers or something. I have several of these boards packed
away...I'll see if I can unearth one and see what it's got on it.
They sure are neat. Definitely not an array processor, though.
