Signal-Ground Connection

The SRC pin of LMG365xR025 internally connects to the GND pin of the power IC, the signal-ground reference. Verify that the local signal-ground planes connect to the GND pin with low impedance star connection. In addition, verify that the return path for the passives associated to the driver (bypass capacitors) connect to the GND pin. In Section 8.4.2, local signal-ground planes are on second layer to act as the return path for the local circuitry. The local signal-ground planes do not connect to the high-current SRC pins, except the star connection at the GND pin.
