Modern electronic systems require a host of different regulated voltages to power various subsystems. The number of voltage rails has risen as new generations of processors, memory devices, and other ...

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 ...

Accidentally connecting a battery reverse can be a real killer in electronic circuits. There are a number of ways to provide protection and all have the expected advantages and disadvantages. Any ...

Abstract: When MOSFET is used as a power switch, it is essential to prevent reverse current flow through the parasitic body diodes under reverse voltage condition. A new built-in reverse voltage ...

As they took him away, Clyde realized that leaving out that protection FET to save $0.35 had been a poor design decision. (Courtesy of Autoevolution) Electronics and automobiles have a long history ...

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 ...

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Reviewing the circuit, I realized that all peripherals, such as fans and TMC drivers, are using the direct power supply from the 12/24V ...

Torex has a high speed LDO with reverse current protection. The XC6227 operates with input voltages from 1.7V to 6.0V, can deliver output currents up to 700mA and is readily available with fixed ...
