●Safety measure
1) Reverse connection protection diode
2) Measure against Vcc voltage rise by back electromotive force
Internal circuit impedance high
Reverse connection of power results in IC destruction as shown in Fig.31. When reverse connection is possible, reverse
connection protection diode must be added between power supply and Vcc.
Back electromotive force (Back EMF) generates regenerative current to power supply. However, when reverse
connection protection diode is connected, Vcc voltage rises because the diode prevents current flow to power supply.
When the absolute maximum rated voltage may be exceeded due to voltage rise by back electromotive force, place
(A) Capacitor or (B) Zenner diode between Vcc and GND. If necessary, add both (C).
