Ground.
Gain Mode. This pin selects positive or negative gain slope for gain control. When this pin is tied to VBAT, the
gain of the AD8338 increases proportionally with an increase of the voltage on the GAIN pin. When this pin is
tied to COMM, the gain decreases with an increase of the voltage on the GAIN pin.
