However, integrated circuits are VERY SUSCEPTABLE to reverse battery connection – most simply die instantly and silently – others may smoke and/or explode. For this reason, NEVER design or make a ...

Nexperia has put an ideal diode, including its p-channel mosfet, and reverse polarity protection, in a 2.1 x 1.25 x 0.95mm TSSOP6 package. Called NID5100, ... hence the diode symbol in the typical ...

Author Jim Walker describes how to use a dual IRF7342 or IRF7341 in a circuit to supply low-voltage reverse-polarity protection A dual IRF7342 FET was used (p-channel, with both sides wired in ...

Fairchild Semiconductor offers a new line of low-power, application-specific, reverse polarity protection switches which also feature optional over-voltage transient protection ...

*No, THIS is the best reverse polarity protection circuit! by Hasse Industries, on YouTube. BTW, I don’t agree with the presenter’s assertion that this is better than a p-channel mosfet in the ...
