LM74500-Q1: LM74500-Q1 Reverse Polarity. Need to tolerate 110V positive

Part Number: LM74500-Q1

Tool/software:

Hello,

I'm looking at using the LM74500-Q1 for reverse polarity protection of -40V.  I need to tolerate +110V surge which is very low impedance.  The LM74500 is only rated for 65V.  Any reason I can't float this with a resistor from the gnd lead to the power gnd and have zeners across the source to ground  terminals of the IC to limit to < 65V?  It would be always on and I would tie enable to source.  It seems like this should be able to be done, but I don't see any application notes recommending this for using at higher bus voltages so I thought maybe I was missing something and wanted to double check.  I was hoping you actually had an app note showing this.

Regards

Jeremy

    Hi Jeremy,

    Yes, you can add circuits to protect the controller (LM74500) but your downstream load will not be protected. To protect the load, you will need a blocking FET.

    You can consider LM74502-Q1 which has what you are looking for.
