a. Note that the Ethernet PHY is powered up by default. The PHY cannot be powered down unless a clock source is provided
and the MDIO pin is pulled up through a 10-kΏ resistor.
Table 21-10 on page 745 show how to handle signals for functions that are not used in a particular
system implementation for devices that are in a 108-pin BGA package. Two options are shown in
the table: an acceptable practice and a preferred practice for reduced power consumption and
improved EMC characteristics. If a module is not used in a system, and its inputs are grounded, it
is important that the clock to the module is never enabled by setting the corresponding bit in the
RCGCx register.
