Provide a current path with load current capability by
using a diode, a Z-diode, or a varistor. (VZL <72 V or
VZb <30 V if RIN=0). For higher clamp voltages
currents at IN and IS have to be limited to 250 mA.

To minimize power dissipation at reverse battery
operation, the summarized current into the IN and IS
pin should be about 120mA. The current can be
provided by using a small signal diode D in parallel to
the input switch, by using a MOSFET input switch or
by proper adjusting the current through RIS and RV.
