Reverse current is where the load attempts to force current back into the power supply source. Such instances can occur when the power supply source is suddenly reduced or completely lost, and the load supply bypass capacitors or batteries attempt to force current back into the power source when first connected.
Reverse current protection is important in distributed, redundant, or hot-swap power supply applications where the loads could potentially force current back into the main bus voltage. Reverse current is where the load attempts to force current back into the power supply source.
The simplest form of reverse voltage and reverse current protection is a diode in series with the supply rail to block the current from flowing back towards the source, as shown in Figure 1. The drawback of this technique is the power loss due to the forward voltage drop of the diode (up to 1 V or more under load).
Reverse current can also occur when the load tries to force voltage back into the main supply bus, such as back-EMF from an inductive circuit or motor, or a failed battery charging circuit. There are several methods commonly implemented to protect against reverse voltage.
If the circuit has no reverse current protection for multiplexing case, it will cause the current to flow back to the power supply and then damage the system. The circuit and component specifications are shown in Figure 14.
Reverse current can also occur when the load tries to force voltage back into the main supply bus, such as back-EMF from an inductive circuit or a failed battery charging circuit. To enable reverse current protection, a comparator is placed across the MOSFET to monitor the direction of the current, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1.
