Verify Successful Power-up of PHY

After verifying the schematics with the schematic checklist in the previous section, in order to start testing for any other issues that may present with application of the PHY, the PHY must first be successfully powered up in order to perform any other debugging processes. Probe the voltage rails of the PHY to ensure that the voltages are within limits defined in PHY Supply Voltage Specifications. Verify that the power up voltage parameter timings are within the limits defined in Timing Requirements, Power-Up Timing and Power-Up Timing.

Note:

If a link up issue is present for DP83822 and the VDDA is operated in 3.3V, check register 0x0421 to see AVDD level and VDDIO level match the desire output. Register 0x0421 bit[2]=1 for 3.3V VDDA. If register 0x0421 does not match with the desire result, write 0x041F register to the desire voltage level. Write register 0x041F bit[12] = 1.

Registers 0x0421 and 0x041F are extended registers, make sure to follow Extended Register Access.
