The NXP PCA9571 chip is an 8-bits I²C output expander.

## Logic analyzer setup

The logic analyzer used was a Hobby Components HCTEST0006 (at 2 MHz):

Probe I²C signal

0 SDA
1 SCL

## Data

The sigrok command line used was:

sigrok-cli -d fx2lafw -c samplerate=2mhz --time <time> \
 --channels 'D0=SDA,D1=SCL' -o <filename.sr>

This is a set of example captures of NXP PCA9571 I/O accesses.

Three traces are included:

- pca9571_simple.sr: a simple output write operation.

- pca9571_sequence.sr: 64 consecutive write operations.

- pca9571_warning.sr: this produces a warning because the first read value
  is different from the expected one (the PCA9571 start-up 8-bits port
  status is high logic level 0xFF). This may occur if the first monitored
  operation is a read operation and the PCA9571 is not in its default state
  or if the PCA9571 reboots during the monitoring.
