That's right, Spock referring to Kirk "Dunsil, Doctor is a term used by mid-shipmen at Starfleet academy, it refers to a part that has no useful purpose!"

I once owned a book "The 8088 cookbook" and it showed how build an 8088 system from ground up. It was this book that made me realise that micro-controllers were the way to go. I don't see it using Google so it may have vanished. It started with the bare minimum and built up, using diodes then EPROMs for programming.
