The outputs of the gBOX GPI ports are also CMOS. The output
signal is referenced to pin 1 of the GPI Output Port. The GPI
Outputs are rated to +/- 6mA. If this is not sufficient for your
application, consider using the eBOX I/O.

Note: Because the inputs are CMOS, the output voltage MUST be
limited to voltage levels between 0 and 5 volts. This can occur if
driving a circuit that is powered by a voltage higher than 5 volts. If
this is not possible, consider using the gBOX I/O.


The example circuits below shows a GPI Output driving an LED.
