Overview
The VN5R003H-E, produced by STMicroelectronics, is a reverse battery protection switch designed using STMicroelectronics’ VIPower technology. This device is intended to provide protection against reverse battery connections in electronic modules. It features two power pins (Drain and Source) and a control pin (IN), which automatically turns the device off in case of a negative input voltage at the Drain pin relative to the IN pin. When the IN pin is left open, the device remains in an OFF-state and behaves like a power diode between the Source and Drain pins.
