Note: The GPIO outputs have 100 Ω series resistors; the GPIO inputs have 1K pullup resistors to 3.3V; and the input
threshold on the 541 chips is 2V high and .8V low. The high voltage is not problematic, but the low voltage can be if there
are too many inputs connected to one output.
1 out driving 1 in V=3.3*100/(100+1,000)=0.3
1 out driving 2 in V=3.3*100/(100+500)=0.55
1 out driving 3 in V=3.3*100/(100+333.3)=0.76
1 out driving 4 in V=3.3*100/(100+250)=.94 (This is too high, so 1 output
driving 3 inputs is the maximum)
