8
I8
Transmit Data 0: The MAC transmits data to the PHY using this signal in
all modes.
TXD1
TXEN
I8
Transmit Data 1: The MAC transmits data to the PHY using this signal in
all modes
IPD
Transmit Enable: Indicates that valid data is presented on the TXD[1:0]
signals, for transmission.
RXD0/
MODE0
IOPU Receive Data 0: Bit 0 of the 4 data bits that are sent by the PHY in the
receive path.
PHY Operating Mode Bit 0: set the default MODE of the PHY.
See Section 5.3.9.2 for information on the MODE options.
RXD1/
MODE1
7
IOPU Receive Data 1: Bit 1 of the 4 data bits that are sent by the PHY in the
receive path.
PHY Operating Mode Bit 1: set the default MODE of the PHY.
See Section 5.3.9.2 for information on the MODE options.
RXER/
PHYAD0
10
IOPD Receive Error: Asserted to indicate that an error was detected somewhere
in the frame presently being transferred from the PHY.
The RXER signal is optional in RMII Mode.
This signal is mux’d with PHYAD0
See Section 5.3.9.1 for information on the ADDRESS options.
CRS_DV/
MODE2
11
IOPU RMII Mode CRS_DV (Carrier Sense/Receive Data Valid) Asserted to
indicate when the receive medium is non-idle. When a 10BT packet is
received, CRS_DV is asserted, but RXD[1:0] is held low until the SFD byte
(10101011) is received. In 10BT, half-duplex mode, transmitted data is not
looped back onto the receive data pins, per the RMII standard.
PHY Operating Mode Bit 2: set the default MODE of the PHY.
See Section 5.3.9.2 for information on the MODE options.

DESCRIPTION
LED1/
REGOFF

IOPD LED1 – Link activity LED Indication.
See Section 5.3.7 for a description of LED modes.
Regulator Off: This pin may be used to configure the internal 1.2V regulator
off. As described in Section 4.11, this pin is sampled during the power-on
sequence to determine if the internal regulator should turn on. When the
regulator is disabled, external 1.2V must be supplied to VDDCR.
When LED1/REGOFF is pulled high to VDD2A with an external resistor, the
internal regulator is disabled.
When LED1/REGOFF is floating or pulled low, the internal regulator is
enabled (default).
