Are you seriously close to running out of your 28 DIO's? I have 2 encoders in the drivetrain (4 inputs), pressure switch, claw sensor, ball-in sensor, and that's it. 7 inputs, not including analog. Not close to 28. Same with the Cypress board. 16 inputs. We have three buttons plus a 4-pos switch, and we still haven't filled half of the IO. Plus, you can always use analog triggers as DIO, adding another 16 di's to the 28 dio's (total: 44 dio). If you seem to be using lots of DO's, you can use Relay channels as 2 DO's each, another 32 DO's todal.
