Hi
I have a simple circuit involving an LM7805 to get the a 12v feed down to 5v to drive a pic. I've had a couple of people blow the regulator up by connecting it up backward. Is there a simple circuit I could use that would protect the regulator burning out if it was accidently wired up backwards?
