7.5.1 Strap Configuration

The DP83TC814S-Q1 uses functional pins as strap options to place the device into specific modes of operation. The values of these pins are sampled at power up and hardware reset (through either the RESET pin or register access). Some strap pins support 3 levels and some strap pins support 2 levels, which are described in greater detail below. PHY address straps, RX_DV/RX_CTRL and RX_ER, are 3-level straps while all other straps are two levels. Configuration of the device can be done through strapping or through serial management interface.

Note:

Because strap pins are functional pins after reset is deasserted, strap pins must not be connected directly to VDDIO or VDDMAC or GND. Either pullup resistors, pulldown resistors, or both are required for proper operation.

Note:

When using VDDMAC and VDDIO separately, connect strap resistors to the correct voltage rail. The voltage domain of each pin is listed in the table below.

(1) Strap resistors with up to 10% tolerance can be used.
(2) To gain more margin in customer application for 1.8V VDDIO, either 2.1kΩ +/-10% pull-up can be used or resistor accuracy of 2.49kΩ resistor can be limited to 1%.

Note: Refer to SNLA389 Application Note for more information about the register settings used for compliance testing. Use these register settings to achieve the same performance as observed during compliance testing. Managed mode strap option is recommended to prevent the link up process from initiating while the software configuration from SNLA389 is being executed. Once the software configuration is completed, the PHY can be removed from Managed mode by setting bit 0x018B[6] to ‘1’. This bit is auto-cleared after link up

RX_D3 strap pin has a special functionality of controlling the output status of CLKOUT (pin 16) and LED_1 (pin 6). The Table 7-21 table below shows how pin 16 and pin 6 is affected by RX_D3 strap status. Note that RX_D3 option only changes the pin functionality but not the voltage domains. Pin 16 is always in VDDMAC domain and Pin 6 is always in VDDIO domain. If VDDIO and VDDMAC are at separate voltage levels, VDDIO and VDDMAC must be verified that pin 16 and pin 6 are strapped to the respective voltage domains.

In clock output daisy chain applications, if VDDMAC and VDDIO are at different voltages then clock output must be routed to pin 6. Internal oscillator of the DP83TC814 operates in the VDDIO domain, so clock output must also be used on the pin in VDDIO domain, such as pin 6. In clock output daisy chain applications where VDDMAC and VDDIO are same, this requirement can be ignored. This requirement can also be ignored in applications where clock output is not being used.
