Power Down Control
Asserted high to force the DM9161A into power down mode. When in
power down mode, most of the DM9161A circuit block’s power is turned
off, only the MII management interface (MDC, MDIO) logic is available
(the PHY should respond to management transactions and should not
generate spurious signals on the MII)). To leave power down mode, the
DM9161A needs the hardware or software reset with the PWRDWN pin
low
