Power Supply and Ground Connections
The MAX3673 has seven supply connection pins;
installation of a bypass capacitor at each supply pin is
recommended. All seven supply connections should be
driven from the same source to eliminate the possibility
of independent power-supply sequencing. Excessive
supply noise can result in increased jitter.
The 56-pin TQFN package features an exposed pad
(EP), which provides a low-resistance thermal path for
heat removal from the IC and must be connected to the
circuit board ground plane for proper operation.
