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 ...
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 ...
When a circuit requires reverse-voltage protection on the power input, the usual approach is a series diode (see the figure, a). But if the input voltage is low—say, two or three AA batteries—the ...
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 ...
The board also needs reverse-voltage protection so that a higher voltage power source doesn’t back drive a lower voltage one. Now, for the output power protection, the board needs current-limit ...
