Part Number: TPA0213

Hello!

I may have overlooked that info in the datasheet but can I connect the thermal pad of this amplifier to GND or is it internally connected to some other net?

Thank You

Hi Gerfried,

Yes, PowerPad on TPA0213 can be connected to GND.
Actually, this is what we do on the EVM: www.ti.com/.../slou094.pdf
