3 AVDDL power_in Analog core power supply, 1.1V/1.2V. Sourced from internal LDO2 output (LDO_O, pin 30) on YT8531DH.
4 TRXP1 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 1 positive; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
5 TRXN1 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 1 negative; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
6 TRXP2 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 2 positive; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
7 TRXN2 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 2 negative; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
8 AVDDL power_in Analog core power supply, 1.1V/1.2V. Second analog core-power pin; tie to same rail as pin 3.
9 TRXP3 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 3 positive; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
10 TRXN3 bidirectional Media-dependent interface 3 negative; 100Ω differential MDI transmission line.
11 AVDD33 power_in Analog 3.3V power supply for the PHY analog front end.
12 RESET_N input Hardware reset, active low. Requires an external pull-up resistor (internal pull-up also present).
13 MDC input Management Data Clock (SMI/MDIO interface). Internal pull-down.
14 MDIO bidirectional Management data input/output (SMI). Internal pull-up. Must be pulled up to 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V matching the RGMII I/O voltage.
15 TXD3 input RGMII transmit data bit 3 (MAC→PHY on TXD[3:0]). Internal pull-down.
16 TXD2 input RGMII transmit data bit 2 (MAC→PHY on TXD[3:0]). Internal pull-down.
17 TXD1 input RGMII transmit data bit 1 (MAC→PHY on TXD[3:0]). Internal pull-down.
18 TXD0 input RGMII transmit data bit 0 (MAC→PHY on TXD[3:0]). Internal pull-down.
19 TX_CTL input RGMII transmit control signal from the MAC. Internal pull-down.
20 TX_CLK input RGMII transmit reference clock from MAC. 125 MHz / 25 MHz / 2.5 MHz depending on link speed. Internal pull-down.
21 DVDDL power_in Digital core power supply, 1.1V/1.2V. Fed from internal LDO2 output (pin 30) on YT8531DH.
22 RXD3/PHYAD0 output RGMII receive data bit 3 (PHY→MAC on RXD[3:0]). At power-up latched as PHYAD[0] of the SMI PHY address. Internal pull-down.
23 RXD2/PLLOFF output RGMII receive data bit 2. Latched at power-up to configure PLL-off behavior in sleep mode. Internal pull-down.
24 RXD1/TXDLY output RGMII receive data bit 1. Latched at power-up: pull-up adds delay to TXC for TXD latching (RGMII TX clock timing). Internal pull-down.
25 RXD0/RXDLY output RGMII receive data bit 0. Latched at power-up: controls RGMII receive clock timing (adds 2 ns delay when RX_CLK=125MHz, 8 ns when RX_CLK=25/2.5MHz). Internal pull-up.
26 RX_CTL/PHYAD2 output RGMII receive control signal to the MAC. Latched at power-up as PHYAD[2]. Internal pull-down.
27 RX_CLK/PHYAD1 output RGMII continuous receive reference clock (125/25/2.5 MHz derived from received data). Latched at power-up as PHYAD[1]. Internal pull-down.
28 DVDD_RGMII power_in Digital RGMII I/O and MDC/MDIO pad power. Voltage set by CFG_EXT and CFG_LDO[1:0]: 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V from external supply, or from the internal LDO (2.5V/1.8V only). A bulk plus decoupling cap is required regardless of source.
29 DVDD33 power_in 3.3V digital non-RGMII I/O power supply.
30 LDO_O power_out Internal LDO output, 1.1V. On YT8531DH/YT8531DC this pin sources the 1.1V/1.2V core rail; connect to AVDDL (pins 3, 8, 38) and DVDDL (pin 21) with appropriate decoupling.
31 INT_N/PME_N output Open-drain interrupt / power-management event output. Default is INT_N (active-low level-triggered). Selectable to PME_N (Wake-on-LAN magic-packet event) via EXT 0xA00A bit[6]. Must be pulled up to 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V when used, or left floating.
32 LED0/CFG_EXT output LED0 output (default: link-up at 10 Mbps solid, activity blink). Latched at power-up as CFG_EXT: pull-up = use external I/O pad power; pull-down = use internal LDO. Internal pull-up.
33 LED1/CFG_LDO0 output LED1 output (default: link-up at 100 Mbps solid, activity blink). Latched at power-up as CFG_LDO[0], setting internal LDO output voltage or external I/O voltage selection together with CFG_LDO1. Internal pull-up.
34 LED2/CFG_LDO1 output LED2 output (default: link-up at 1000 Mbps solid, activity blink). Latched at power-up as CFG_LDO[1]. Together with CFG_LDO0: with CFG_EXT low selects internal LDO = 2.5V/1.8V; with CFG_EXT high selects external I/O = 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V. Internal pull-down.
35 CLKOUT output 25 MHz reference clock output derived from the internal PLL. Also used as the UTP recovery receive clock for Sync-E. Leave floating if unused by the MAC.
36 XTAL_I input 25 MHz crystal input. If driving from an external oscillator/clock on this pin, leave XTAL_O floating. If driving XTAL_O from an external source instead, tie XTAL_I to GND.
37 XTAL_O output 25 MHz crystal output. When driving from an external oscillator/clock on this pin, XTAL_I must be shorted to GND.
38 AVDDL power_in Analog core power supply, 1.1V/1.2V. Third AVDDL pin; tie to same rail as pins 3 and 8.
39 RBIAS passive Bias resistor pin. An external 2.49 kΩ ±1% resistor must be connected between RBIAS and GND to set the internal bias current.
40 AVDD33 power_in Analog 3.3V power supply (second AVDD33 pin; tie to same rail as pin 11).
41 GND power_in Exposed thermal pad on the package underside. Must be soldered to the PCB ground plane for both electrical ground and heat sinking.
