Hello, 

should the exposed pad PCA9633TK be connected to GND or should it be left unconnected? 

Best regards

Janis

Hello Janis,

The exposed pad of the PCA9633TK (HVSON8 package) is not connected to the die supply ground, so our recommendation is to connect it to an isolated PCB pad (no connection to the system) for better thermal performance.

Best regards,

Tomas
