TPS51285B: 3.3V output not needed, can I ignore the external components for that side?

Part Number: TPS51285B

I'm wondering if I need the mosfets and corresponding passive components on the 3.3V side if I'm not using that output. Can I ground the 3.3V enable pin and leave the rest floating?


I'm doing a test for a client that wants it done with this specific IC, so changing to one that only does 5V is not an option.
