4.4 Increased Creepage and Clearance

The DRV8376 is available in 6x4 mm QFN package with a clearance of 0.6mm between the pins where a voltage up to VM is expected. For example, at VM = 48V, the device has increased clearance between those high voltage pins (including, VM, OUTx, CP to GND). Figure 4-3 indicates the pins with 0.6mm clearance.
