Reverse polarity protection is essential in battery-connected automotive systems. So, while reverse polarity is a risky, how do we prevent it? This article delves into reverse polarity protection circuits built around standard and Schottky diodes, as well as high-side P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs. It also offers design ideas on how to implement these protection circuits efficiently.
