This input pin is used by the constant power engine and the PG comparator to measure VDS of Q1 as V(SENSE-OUT). Internal protection circuits leak a small current from this pin when it is low. If the load circuit can drive OUT below ground, connect a clamp (or freewheel) diode such as an S1B from OUT (cathode) to GND (anode).
