Introduction
The Texas Instruments LM74610-SQ Evaluation Module helps designers evaluate the operation and
performance of the LM74610-Q1 Reverse Polarity Protection Smart Diode Controller. This evaluation
module demonstrates how an N-Channel power MOSFET can emulate a very low forward voltage diode
with zero Iq and low leakage current flowing through the IC. In this design scheme the LM74610-Q1 is
combined with a MOSFET and used in series with battery as a replacement for schottky diode and PFET
in reverse polarity protection circuitry as shown in
functional and electrical characteristics, see the LM74610-Q1 Reverse Polarity Protection Smart Diode
Controller Data Sheet (LM74610).

Setup
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well and how to properly connect, set
up and use the LM74610-SQEVM. Ensure the power supply is turned off while making connections on the
board.

Input/Output Connector Description
•
VBAT_1: Power input connector to the positive rail of the input power supply.
•
GND: Battery ground connector.
•
VOUT: is the power output connector to the positive side of the load.
•
TEST POINTS: are also available at VBAT_1, GND, VOUT, DRV_1 (MOSFET Gate Voltage), and
VCAP_1 (Charge pump capacitor).
