LM74610-Q1: LM74610-Q1 reverse polarity circuit

Part Number:LM74610-Q1

Hi,

I want to protect my circuit with reverse polarity.

I see that the LM74610 could suit for my purposes. I have some doubts I hope you can clarify:

• From evaluation board I see the device could prevent reverse polarity during negative spike when it's working (dinamically). Can it prevent reverse polarity  at the begininng when the operator connect the input power supply in a wrong way (exchanging + with -) ? I suppose yes.
• My input power supply comes form a 12V battery. Should I use the TVS diodes ? I have no specification to respect but just reverse polarity.

Hope in your support.

Thanks a lot

Nico
