The circuit is employed in systems where incorrect voltage connection can cause damage to the circuit.

Use the switch on the left to toggle between the correct and incorrect polarity to see how the circuit works!

The MOSFET and the resistor and diode conected to the gate of the MOSFET are useless in this configuration

@WTFCircuit Well,not exactly useless. They function to minimize Vf X I losses across the diode. Resistance is useless though for low input values. :)
