SN65HVD75: SN65HVD75DRBR Thermal Pad Electrical Connectivity

Part Number: SN65HVD75

Support Path: /Product/Production, ordering, and quality/Packaging information/

I'm not able to find any information in the SN65HVD75DRBR datasheet about the electrical connectivity for the exposed thermal pad.  Can this pad be connected to the local device ground (same net as pin 5)?
