* The optional AVO character set roms (see below) have: pin 18: /CS2*; pin 20: /CS1; pin 21: CS3 hence they match a normal 2716
*(this is marked on the image as if it was CS2 but the input is tied to gnd meaning it must be /CS2)
* The AVO itself can hold up to four character set roms on it (see http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/terminal/vt100/MP00633_VT100_Mar80.pdf
* The AVO itself can hold up to four roms on it (see http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/terminal/vt100/MP00633_VT100_Mar80.pdf
and http://vt100.net/dec/ek-vt1ac-ug-002.pdf )
