With the recent discussion about the "6503"...

Peeking into my ancient Jameco catalog, we have 6504s, 6507s, and 6512s,
processors all!  There are 6522 versatile interface adapters (used by the
Mockingboard, I think, to generate interrupts and provide programmable
registers), 6526 Complex interface adapter, tri port interfaces, 6532
128x8(bit?)RAM, a CRT controller, video interface chips for NTSC and PAL,
communication chips and Sound Interface chips!

Are there such support chips for the 65816?  Are the chips listed above
horribly outdated in functionality?  What is the Complex interface adapter?
