The VIN pins supply current to the
PG (Pin 23):
The PG pin is the open-drain output of an LT8613 internal circuitry and to the internal topside power internal comparator. PG remains low until the FB pin is switch. These pins must be tied together and be locally within ±9% of the final regulation voltage, and there are bypassed. Be sure to place the positive terminal of the no fault conditions. PG is valid when V input capacitor as close as possible to the V IN is above 3.4V, IN pins, and regardless of EN/UV pin state. the negative capacitor terminal as close as possible to the PGND pins.
