2.4 MSP Connection

  • By default, the onboard MSP430™ is connected to both PHYs for MDC/MDIO communication.
  • To use an external MDC/MDIO connection, remove R81 and R82, then connect MDC, MDIO, and GND to J2.
    • Note that J2 is not populated by default. Install a 3-pin header here for easy external connections, or solder external connections directly to J2 pads.
