Optional Protection Circuit
Optional Protection 1:
Add a blocking diode to Vout
if current can flow backwards
into the output, as this can
damage the converter when it
is powered down.
The diode can either be fitted
across the device if the
source is low impedance or
fitted in series with the output
(recommended).
