Note 2.1
This pin is used for factory testing and is latched on power up. This pin is pulled high
through an internal resistor and must not be pulled low externally. This pin must be
augmented with an external resistor when connected to a load. The value of the resistor
must be such that the pin reaches its valid level before de-assertion of PCInRST following
power up. The “IS” input buffer type is enabled only during power up. The “IS” input buffer
type is disabled at all other times.

General Purpose Output 3:
This pin can also function
as a general purpose output. The EECS pin is deasserted
so as to never unintentionally access the serial EEPROM.

TX_EN Signal Monitor:
This pin can also be configured
to monitor the TX_EN signal on the internal MII port. The
EECS pin is deasserted so as to never unintentionally
access the serial EEPROM.
TX_CLK

O8
TX_CLK Signal Monitor:
This pin can also be configured
to monitor the TX_CLK signal on the internal MII port.
The EECS pin is deasserted so as to never
unintentionally access the serial EEPROM.
