STM32H745 - unused SMPS pins

I don't use the internal Step Down regulator. How should the pins be tied?

Should VDDSMPS be tied to VDD and VSSSMPS to GND with VLXSMPS and VFBSMPS left open?

OR - should they ALL be left open?

Documentation only speaks as if they are to be used - no comments on what to do if not used.

This app note for STM32H7A/B shows them as grounded/floating. Can't imagine it's different for the H745.

Hi,

is the same solution possible for the STM32H747XIH6?

I want to fully bypass the internal LDO and SMPS.

 STM32H747 and STM32H745 have the same config from power settings point of view.
