DRV8328: Thermal pad connection

Luke Sakamoto

Part Number: DRV8328

Hi team,

Should the thermal pad be

(1) connected to GND, or

(2) connected to other pins, or

(3) float?

Thanks,

Luke

Hi Luke,

Thank you for posting to the Motor Drivers forum!

The thermal pad should be connected to GND as specified below in Table 6-1 Pin Functions—28-Pin DRV8328 Devices on page 5.

Best,
