esphome 2026.01 the configuration of ethernet - pap - 08-27-2025

Hi
With esphome 2026.01 the configuration of
ethernet:
  type: LAN8720
  mdc_pin: GPIO23
  mdio_pin: GPIO18
  clk_mode: GPIO17_OUT
  phy_addr: 0
have to be changed to the new Version.
 
ethernet:
  type: LAN8720
  mdc_pin: GPIO23
  mdio_pin: GPIO18
  clk:
    pin: GPIO17
    mode: CLK_EXT_IN or CLK_OUT
  phy_addr: 0
 
All Posts or Documentation i am able to find (e.g. https://www.kincony.com/kc868-a16-ethernet-home-assistant-esphome-configure.html) shows deprecated Version of configuration of ethernet.
Can you help me please with the mode (CLK_EXT_IN or CLK_OUT) setting for the KC868-A16?
Thanks a lot
Best Regards from Austria
Peter
