Chip reset input. Active low. This is the external reset source used to
reset this chip. This input feeds to the internal power-on reset
circuitry, which provides the main reset source of this chip.
Remote-wakeup trigger from external pin. EXTWAKE_N should be
asserted low for more than 2 cycles of 25MHz clock to be effective.
Self_power Indication Input.

0: will respond to Host that this device is a bus-power-device when
Host query device.
