load to GND; worst case
skew numbers are a calculation of worst case conditions through circuits. Both numbers apply to any channel
within a single or multiple module system.
[2] Channel 7 on the 3-state pods has been brought out in parallel as a non 3-state signal. By looping this output back
into the 3-state enable line, the channel can be used as a 3-state enable.
