How isolated does SnGND need to be for the T4160?

If I connect SnGND directly to system ground will there be any problems? Would it be okay if I connected it through a ferrite bead? The datasheet makes several references to SnGND making me think it needs to be separate from system ground.

Connect SnGND to common ground. Do not use ferrite beds to isolate SnGND.

However: "There needs to be dedicated analog ground, AGND_SDn_PLLn for each AVDD_SDn_PLLn pin up to the physical local of the filters themselves."


Have a great day,
