Built-in MAC (original ESP32)
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
The original ESP32 SoC has a built-in Ethernet MAC. Using this MAC requires an
external Ethernet PHY to be wired to the chip's EMAC pins. Most of the EMAC pin
assignments are fixed, consult the ESP32 datasheet for details.
If the PHY is connected, the internal Ethernet MAC can be configured via
the :class:`network.LAN` constructor::

Required keyword arguments for the constructor:

- mdio=pin-object
- reset=pin-object # set the reset pin of the PHY device.
- power=pin-object # set the pin which switches the power of the PHY device.

PHY_LAN8720, PH_IP101, PHY_RTL8201, PHY_DP83848 and PHY_KSZ8041
- phy_addr=number # The address number of the PHY device.
- ref_clk_mode=mode # Defines, whether the ref_clk at the ESP32 is an input
or output. Suitable values are Pin.IN and Pin.OUT.
- ref_clk=pin-object # defines the Pin used for ref_clk.
- ``mdc`` and ``mdio`` - :class:`machine.Pin` objects (or integers) specifying
the MDC and MDIO pins.
- ``phy_type`` - Select the PHY device type. Supported devices are
``PHY_LAN8710``, ``PHY_LAN8720``, ``PHY_IP101``, ``PHY_RTL8201``,
``PHY_DP83848``, ``PHY_KSZ8041`` and ``PHY_KSZ8081``. These values are all
constants defined in the ``network`` module.
- ``phy_addr`` - The address number of the PHY device. Must be an integer in the
range 0x00 to 0x1f, inclusive. Common values are ``0`` and ``1``.

All of the above keyword arguments must be present to configure the interface.
Optional keyword arguments:

switches the power of the PHY device.
- ``ref_clk`` - :class:`machine.Pin` object (or integer) specifying the pin used
for the EMAC ``ref_clk`` signal. If not specified, the board default is used
(typically GPIO 0, but may be different if a particular board has Ethernet.)
- ``ref_clk_mode`` - Defines whether the EMAC ``ref_clk`` pin of the ESP32
should be an input or an output. Suitable values are ``machine.Pin.IN`` and
``machine.Pin.OUT``. If not specified, the board default is used
(typically input, but may be different if a particular board has Ethernet.)

SPI Ethernet Interface
""""""""""""""""""""""
All ESP32 SoCs support external SPI Ethernet interface chips. These are Ethernet
interfaces that connect via a SPI bus, rather than an Ethernet RMII interface.
.. note:: The only exception is the ESP32 ``d2wd`` variant, where this feature is disabled
to save code size.
SPI Ethernet uses the same :class:`network.LAN` constructor, with a different
set of keyword arguments::
import machine, network
spi = machine.SPI(1, sck=SCK_PIN, mosi=MOSI_PIN, miso=MISO_PIN)
lan = network.LAN(spi=spi, cs=CS_PIN, ...) # Set the pin and mode configuration
lan.active(True) # activate the interface
lan.ipconfig('addr4') # get the interface's IPv4 addresses
Required keyword arguments for the constructor:
- ``spi`` - Should be a :class:`machine.SPI` object configured for this
connection. Note that any clock speed configured on the SPI object is ignored,
the SPI Ethernet clock speed is configured at compile time.
- ``cs`` - :class:`machine.Pin` object (or integer) specifying the CS pin
connected to the interface.
- ``int`` - :class:`machine.Pin` object (or integer) specifying the INT pin
connected to the interface.
- ``phy_type`` - Select the SPI Ethernet interface type. Supported devices are
``PHY_KSZ8851SNL``, ``PHY_DM9051``, ``PHY_W5500``. These values are all
constants defined in the ``network`` module.
- ``phy_addr`` - The address number of the PHY device. Must be an integer in the
range 0x00 to 0x1f, inclusive. This is usually ``0`` for SPI Ethernet devices.
All of the above keyword arguments must be present to configure the interface.
Optional keyword arguments for the constructor:
- ``reset`` - :class:`machine.Pin` object (or integer) specifying the SPI Ethernet
interface reset pin.
- ``power`` - :class:`machine.Pin` object (or integer) specifying a pin which
switches the power of the SPI Ethernet interface.
Here is a sample configuration for a WIZNet W5500 chip connected to pins on
an ESP32-S3 development board::
import machine, network
from machine import Pin, SPI
spi = SPI(1, sck=Pin(12), mosi=Pin(13), miso=Pin(14))
lan = network.LAN(spi=spi, phy_type=network.PHY_W5500, phy_addr=0,
cs=Pin(10), int=Pin(11))
.. note:: WIZnet W5500 Ethernet is also supported on some other MicroPython
ports, but using a :ref:`different software interface
<network.WIZNET5K>`.
