thanks for the response.
i'm making this particular IM a kinda minimal configuration, just 4
bits and no shift register, mainly because it is primarily for DC use
and i wanted to fit it in 1U.
but in any case i thought about it a bit more and decided to do both
ladders and digital outs, cascading a cgs56 board for buffers.
