Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM74502-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
