Diode or MOSFET as a Reversed Voltage Protector
Diode or P-channel MOSFET is what you need to protect your circuit from applying reversed voltage, according to a nice video published on Afrotechmods channel. Method 1:Diode The simplest way is to use a diode in series with main power supply. When you connect the power source...
