Either an N-channel or a P-channel MOSFET can be used for high-side reverse-battery protection. An N-channel device provides the lowest power loss topology by virtue of its low R DS(ON). However, a gate voltage greater than the battery voltage is needed to turn the MOSFET on. This requires a charge pump as shown in figure 1,

Reverse Battery Charger Protection By: Zeeshawn Shameem, Member of the Technical Staff, Applications Feb 16, 2011 Abstract: Combining a linear-mode single-cell lithium-ion battery charger (MAX1551) with a comparator (MAX9001) and n-channel FET adds a layer of reverse-battery protection that protects a single cell
So we demonstrate this concept by using a mini solar panel to charge a rechargeable pencil cell battery. Also we use a charge control circuit designed to stop reverse current flow and charge the battery effectively using the solar panel. Thus this allows us to effectively provide solar battery charging with reverse current protection.

$begingroup$ What about a simple Schottky diode in series, if you can live with a 0.3V drop? It is fairly significant for a 3.7 V 18650, but probably good for multiple cells in series. For a battery charger, it would be necessary to monitor the actual cell voltage, so there would need to be a protected sampling circuit. $endgroup$ – PStechPaul

I did reverse protection using a relay on my 40A battery charger project. The relay''s normally open contacts have a resistor across them so that the full regulated voltage is present at the the charger''s output terminals. the relay''s control circuit turns on the relay only if a connected load pulls the voltage down to between about 1V below regulation voltage and 1V …
When it comes to solar-powered battery charging, reverse current protection plays a vital role. Solar panels can generate electricity when exposed to light, but without proper protection, this current can flow backward, damaging the entire system. Implementing reverse battery protection ensures that the current and energy flow remain in the desired direction.
