DATASHEET
5.3.9.2 Mode Bus – MODE[2:0]
The MODE[2:0] bus controls the configuration of the 10/100 digital block. When the nRST pin is
deasserted, the register bit values are loaded according to the MODE[2:0] pins. The 10/100 digital
block is then configured by the register bit values. When a soft reset occurs (bit 0.15) as described in
Table 5.21, the configuration of the 10/100 digital block is controlled by the register bit values, and the
MODE[2:0] pins have no affect.
The LAN8710 mode may be configured using hardware configuration as summarized in Table 5.40.
The user may configure the transceiver mode by writing the SMI registers.
The MODE[2:0] hardware configuration pins are multiplexed with other signals as shown in Table 5.41.
5.3.9.3 MII/RMII Mode Selection
MII or RMII mode selection is latched on the rising edge of the internal reset (nRESET) based on the
strapping of the RXD2/RMIISEL pin. The default mode is MII with the internal pull-down resistor. To
select RMII mode, pull the RXD2/RMIISEL pin high with an external resistor to VDDIO.

110 Power Down mode. In this mode the transceiver will
wake-up in Power-Down mode. The transceiver
cannot be used when the MODE[2:0] bits are set to
this mode. To exit this mode, the MODE bits in
Register 18.7:5(see Table 5.30) must be configured
to some other value and a soft reset must be
issued.
