TPS25942A: Device protection against polarity inversion of backup battery

Part Number: TPS25942A

Hi,

I use two tps25942a for charging and using a backup battery (12V lead-acid) as well as for measuring the charging and discharging currents of this battery.

It works very well but there is a big problem: if we reverse the polarity by connecting the battery, the TPS25942A are directly destroyed.

Is there a way to protect the TPS25942A in this situation?

Best Regards,

Roland
