ADVANCE INFORMATION
In Reverse Polarity (also known as Reverse Battery) condition, power dissipation is caused by the body diode of each MOSFET. Each ESD diode of the logic and supply pins contributes to total power dissipation. The reverse current through the channels has to be limited by the connected loads. The current through digital power supply VDD and input pins has to be limited as well (please refer to Section 6.1).
No protection mechanism like temperature protection or current limitation is active during reverse polarity.
