This chiclet was designed by us to get around the fact that some vintage synths require a higher gate voltage than 5V, which is produced by most modern devices.

A vintage 2600 for example requires a 12-15V gate
A vintage Oberheim Mini Sequencer requires 10-15V to step it's sequencer

This chiclet simply takes an incoming positive gate and converts it to a voltage close to the V+ you connected to the V+ pad. 

Hint: Add a small ceramic decoupling cap to the gate out and GND to make this behave nicely with audio signals as "gates" to prevent double or more triggers from one transient.
