Try to use the circuit breaker of the LV port as shown below.

Can turn off the circuit breaker function if reverse voltage is applied to the lv-port?

Thanks

Hi David,

The circuit breaker does not help in the reverse voltage protection, and there will be a path from the IC's esd structure and the body diode. In order to protect against reverse polarity, you may consider the following circuit.
