This small module offers reverse input voltage protection up to -60V. If by accident the input voltage polarization is swapped, the complete PIP-System will be protected from damage!
In addition the module protects the system from fast transient input peaks up to +80V (so called load dumps).
A Load dump occurs mostly in vehicles and refers to what happens to the supply voltage when a load is removed. If a load is removed rapidly it can generate over voltage peaks for a few ms, before the voltage is stabilized again.
The PIPLD-1 module can be used together with all PIPs.
