App note from ON Semiconductors about reverse polarity battery protection using MOSFETs and their MOSFET driver for efficiency. Link here (PDF) When the vehicle’s battery is damaged and needs replacement the probability of connecting the new battery in reverse is high. Since many electronic control units (ECU) in the vehicle are connected to the vehicle’s […]

App note: Linear regulators reverse voltage protection
Various input and output reverse voltage protection method for linear regulators discussed in this app note from ROHM. Link here (PDF) A linear regulator integrated circuit (IC) is a DC-to-DC buck converter system that reduces a DC supply from higher voltage level to a lower voltage level, thus it requires that the input voltage is […]
