Now, if you want some in depth details, I can break it down into several more helpful docs: 1. pin connection guidelines document - this tells you which pins that connect to power/ground/etc. Search for "<device name> PCG". 2.

Thermal information on device (for heatsink design ) - search for <device name> EPE tool
