As per PHY data sheet, It should use one of the voltage in list.
i.e. 3.3V (3300 mV) or 2.5V (2500 mV) or 1.8V (1800 mV) or 1.5V (1500).
Other voltages are not accepted. Drivr considers default as 3.3V (3300 mV).

Based on Voltage selection and percentage slowdown, Driver pick the
magic number from Edge rate table.

I understood your suggestion and used voltage in milli Volts.
