10.2.4 Bottom Layer – Ground Layer
The device has an exposed thermal pad on the bottom side for improved thermal performance. Conducting heat
from the thermal pad to other layers requires thermal vias. Because the bottom layer is the secondary heat
exchange surface to ambient, the thermal vias area must have low thermal resistance, that is, no signal vias or
traces that can increase thermal resistance from the thermal vias to the bottom copper.

11.3 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
