It’s a problem that’s been around for as long as there have been battery-powered systems: you load the battery the wrong way, with the poles inverted, and create a reverse-polarity event. The system ...

This article presents the reverse polarity protection for DC/DC converters. It describes the series diode protection, as well as the shunt diode, and P-FET polarity protection circuits. This article ...

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, it is aimed at industrial and consumer ...

A special control IC that emulates a “smart diode” along with an external MOSFET allows positive inputs and prevents negative inputs for automotive and industrial applications. This new IC replaces ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Power systems employ diodes to perform a variety of functions. For example, diodes can protect against damage due to power-source reverse-polarity ...

The Mychanic Smart Jumper Cables ($25) include the brilliant feature of reverse polarity protection. Live positive to dead positive, live negative to ground—that's the car-jumping wisdom that's ...

YouTube presented me with a video* about a reverse polarity protection IC, On Semi’s NCV68261, which can also be an ideal diode and a load controller. And, being partial to a nice ideal diode, I ...

PLANO, Texas, July 23, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today introduces the AP74502Q and AP74502HQ automotive-compliant* 80V ideal diode controllers, providing robust and ...
