Caution: Retro hardware ahead! Proceed at your won risk

I recently found a collection of Burr Brown SDM854BG and SDM854AG chips (example photo)

 and went on wild hunt to search for any documentation for them - found the original one that is from 1990 (almost a decade older than me). Knowing what an ADC does, I'm wondering how does this one is supposed to work on hardware level - is there any special board/socket to connect it to something or is it "get your breadboard out and gl champ"? The "setup" part of the documentation uses a lot of "connect that pin to this pin" so it's making me think that some sort of breadboard is the intended way.

Lastly dont get me wrong - I have no illusions of making them work, just curious so any info is appreciated!

Just a standard through hole component (though a ceramic hybrid it seems) by the looks of it. If it fits on a breadboard, go for it.

Also this should be tge full datasheet if you didn't have it already.
