Tool/software:
The "Pin Functions" table in the datasheet says AVIN should be bypassed to "AGND". The layout guidelines section, as well as the device calculator spreadsheet, says to bypass to "PGND". Which is it?

Hi Daniel,
It is critical to bypass AVIN to AGND, as we have done on our EVM layout. As you can see, the AVIN capacitor is tied to an AGND via, which goes to the internal layer (layer 6) and is routed to an AGND via near the AGND pin. There should be a single AGND-PGND connection at the thermal pad.
We will make sure to update the description in the layout guideline in our next revision of the datasheet.
Thank you,
Tomoya
Nice find! We'll make sure to add that to our list for fixing in the next revision of the datasheet
