 		 #160119 - Maybe these links can help...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
In the following examples the MCP3201 is shown, which also has only one ground pin:

Today, splitted ground planes are less and less often used. Mainly because the routers today don't actually know how this stuff works and, by making mistakes, finally result in a situation that is even worse than when having used a complete, overall ground plane without any gap from begin on.

You can achieve proper results by a solid ground plane without gap, if you only separate the corresponding analog and digital ground return currents!
