TLE9278BQX - VB sense pin Reverse voltage protection

[Alesanna]

Good morning,

I would like to know if the pin VBSENSE of the component TLE9278BQX is protected internally against reverse battery voltage. Because from the application information the connection is before this kind of protection but anything is stated on the datasheet.

Thanks in advance,
Alessandro

Hello Alessandro, 

It is protected against the negative battery condition. Please have a look at the absolute maximum rating. 
Up to -18V allowed at this pin.
