Pins 6, 7, 10, 11, and 18 are assigned to GND, but what would be the impact if only Pin 18 were left OPEN?
I understand that they are typically shorted within the lead frame and die, and I assume regulation would still occur. However, beyond worsening thermal resistance, what other impacts should we consider?
