Figure 5-3 shows the basic output configuration for source operation. In this case, the
external relay coil is connected between the digital output line (pins 1 to 4) and ground
(pin 9). With this configuration, the digital output line must be set HI to energize the relay,
and the maximum source current is 2mA.
