Sorry, can't recommend anything specific. But you may already have some device(s) in mind you'd like to play around with. In that case I'd simply go to the manufacturers web site and try to find if they distribute low-level documentation. If you don't get it there I'd guess it's going to be rather hard to find them elsewhere (and if you find something it could be legally problematic since it might be a copy of the documentation that got leaked despite an NDA).
