polarity protection
038
G. Kleine
In many cases, the battery or batteries in electronic equipment may
be inserted with incorrect polarity. It is, therefore, advisable to use
polarity protection such as shown in the diagrams. It should be
noted that although a Schottky diode may be used, this causes a
voltage drop of a few hundred millivolts, which in the case of a
3 V or 1.5 V battery supply is too much. The protection in the dia-
grams does not cause any reduction in the supply voltage.
The use of a MOSFET, p-channel or n-channel, as the case may
be, ensures that when the polarity is correct, the battery voltage is
applied to the load without any loss. For good efficiency, it is best
to use an n-channel MOSFET, although this has the disadvantage
of having to be inserted in the negative supply line. In cases where
this is impossible or impractical, a p-channel device must be used.
In the choice of MOSFET, it must be borne in mind that the
drain–source breakdown voltage, V(BR)DSS, must be larger than

P-MOSFET
ensure that, provided the polar-
ity is correct, the transistor can
transfer the battery voltage to
the load. Suitable types are cer-
tain HEXFETs from Interna-
tional Rectifier. In the case of
n-channel types, the IRF7401 in
an SO-8 case, the IRF7601 in a
Micro-8 case, and the IRLML
in a Micro-3 case are suitable.
Types suitable for p-channel
operation are the IRF7404 in
an SO-8 case, the IRF7604 in a
Micro-8 case, and the IRML6302 in a Micro-3 case.
