Q: To what can I connect the PowerPAD of TPS76750-Q1 and TPS76850-Q1 to?
A: The PowerPad should be connected to a copper plane for spreading and dissipating heat. It is optional whether this pad is connected to a ground plane or to floating plane. It is typically best to connect the powerpad to ground because this provides some small amount of shielding against noise.
