• Four CMOS gates are the most important part of this board.
• The gate’s direction can be controlled by the DIP switch. It can be configured as output direction or input direction, to match the different modes of the four IO pins.
• Different IO voltage can be applied to this gate. So on the user side, it can be configured to different VCC voltage.
• The range is from +1.8V to +5V. The output signal in the user socket will be the voltage of the VCC
