If you connect the fan to 5V and Gnd it will run all the time. If you connect to 5V (vcc on the fan) and the gpio (gnd on the fan), then you can control the speed of the fan using PWM in the klpper configuration.

Here is my config setup for that fan:

[heater_fan hotend_fan]
pin: sb2040:gpio14
max_power: 1.0
kick_start_time: 0.5
heater: extruder
heater_temp: 50.0
## If you are experiencing back flow, you can reduce fan_speed
fan_speed: 0.8
