Don't think there's an easy answer for you. As you known this is all
based on 5v TTL. Your answer is likely to be chipset specific. Maybe
SIIG will tell you something. If your real lucky you may find a
datasheet for the IC on the board.
The Intel 8255 (big, old, and out of production today) is what IBM used
first so if you grap the data sheet from intel for that part it may give
you some help. I've noticed the newer boards offer some protection
logic for over current (it looks like anyway).
