D20 separates Field GND from PGND.

  1. Why?
  2. Is it recommended for the CLT-01 or the VNI8200XP or both?
  3. What is the probable drawback of connecting the 2 nets without this diode protection? 0693W000003RtbrQAC.png

    ​Hello

    the diode is used only for reverse polarity protection. it is not necessary for a correct  ICs functionality
