I suspect the read is just a dummy to complete the command, but it does
return a byte?

I want to make a low power passively powered opto-isolator to switch
230Vac.  I will generate a passive Vcc at the chip, otherwise the pulse
will not work.  My other option is to switch and let the device do a low
voltage reset when the power line collapses.  I am not sure that planning
for the supply to collapse will be reliable?
