TYPICAL APPLICATIO S
Reverse Input Voltage Protection
In some applications protection from reverse supply volt-
age is desired. If the supply voltage is high enough, a
series blocking diode can be used. In other cases, where
the voltage drop must be kept very low, a P-channel FET
as shown in Figure 6 can be used.
