Do we need to tie unused interface inputs on the CYW43907?

There are a few interfaces we're not using in our design.  Is there a list of what to do with unused inputs or I/O lines on SDIO, MII, S/PDIF, or USB interfaces?  Are they internally pulled to safe / idle states, or do they need to be manually strapped?  If they need to be tied, are resistors required or can we connect directly to VIO/GND?  I realize this may depend on the signal / interface signal, but a list of what to do with unused signals would be very helpful.

Hello SeFe_4295646

I can't find a document to describe the unused I/O interface, since they are standard communication interface, normally,

we recommend:

  1. Input,    need a pull-up resistance to VIO.
  2. Output,  can be floating.
  3. I/O , we can configure them after chip reset .

if there have questions , please correct me, thanks.

Note that I found a similar thread here: https://community.cypress.com/message/183272#183272

Maybe the Applications Team can confirm this is the correct approach for the unused pins.

Ya seems that would apply, thanks for the find, didn't come up on my searches.  Will watch to see if there's confirmation.
