21 DVDDL power_in Digital core power supply, 1.1V/1.2V.
22 RXD3/PHYAD0 output RGMII receive data bit 3 output to MAC. Latched at power-up as PHY address bit 0 (PHYAD0); internal pull-down default sets bit low.

27 RX_CLK/PHYAD1 output RGMII continuous receive reference clock (125/25/2.5 MHz) derived from received data. Latched at power-up as PHY address bit 1 (PHYAD1). Internal pull-down.
28 DVDD_RGMII power_in Digital I/O supply for RGMII, MDC, and MDIO pads. Voltage set by CFG_EXT and CFG_LDO[1:0]; supplied externally or from internal LDO. Requires bulk plus decoupling capacitor regardless of source.
29 DVDD33 power_in 3.3V digital supply for non-RGMII I/O pads.
30 REG_O power_out Internal switch-mode regulator 1.1V output for the YT8531H variant. Connect directly to an external 2.2 uH power inductor. (This pin is LDO_O on YT8531DH/DC and NC on YT8531P.)
31 INT_N/PME_N output Open-drain interrupt output (default INT_N, active low). Optionally reassigned as PME_N (Power Management Event, active low on magic-packet reception) via EXT 0xA00A bit[6]. Requires 3.3V external pull-up; leave floating if unused.
32 LED0/CFG_EXT output LED0 driver (light = 10 Mbps link up, blink = TX/RX activity). Latched at power-up as CFG_EXT strap selecting I/O pad power source (pull-up = external, pull-down = internal LDO). Internal pull-up.
33 LED1/CFG_LDO0 output LED1 driver (light = 100 Mbps link up, blink = TX/RX activity). Latched at power-up as CFG_LDO0, sets I/O pad LDO output voltage or external input voltage together with CFG_LDO1. Internal pull-up.
34 LED2/CFG_LDO1 output LED2 driver (light = 1000 Mbps link up, blink = TX/RX activity). Latched at power-up as CFG_LDO1, sets I/O pad LDO output voltage or external input voltage together with CFG_LDO0. Internal pull-down.
