Instructions for Use

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage is within the specified range (3.3V ± 5%).
   • Use a stable power source to avoid voltage fluctuations.

2. Temperature Management:

   • Operate the device within the temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
   • Consider heat dissipation solutions if operating in high-temperature environments.

3. Interface Configuration:

   • Configure the interface (MII, RMII, or RGMII) according to your system requirements.
   • Refer to the datasheet for specific pin configurations and timing diagrams.

4. MAC and PHY Initialization:

   • Initialize the MAC and PHY using the appropriate register settings.
   • Use the provided initialization code or follow the guidelines in the datasheet.

5. Data Transmission:

   • Ensure proper data framing and error checking during transmission.
   • Monitor the link status and reinitialize if necessary.

6. Low Power Mode:

   • To reduce power consumption, enable the low power mode when the device is not actively transmitting data.
   • Transition to low power mode by setting the appropriate control registers.

7. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid ESD damage.
   • Use ESD-safe tools and workstations when handling the device.

8. Environmental Compliance:

   • Ensure that the device is used in compliance with RoHS and lead-free regulations.
   • Dispose of the device according to environmental guidelines.
