3.1 Complete Timing Diagram

Figure 3-1 illustrates the timeline of each measurement. The wake-up sequence is broken down in steps from T1 to T9. T6, T7, and T8 are marked with “*” (an asterisk) because they are dependent on software. Therefore, T6, T7, and T8 are areas where any design can look to further optimize the TC10 timing. The other time intervals are based only on the hardware of the system.

MDIO rises initially because MDIO is tied to the LM62460-Q1 3V3 output.
