Main finding: the current Q1 reverse-polarity stage is unsafe because VGS can reach about 32 V, and SMCJ33A can clamp above the LM2596 40 V max input. I recommend replacing the front end with TPS26630RGER or LM74700QDDFRQ1 + MOSFET, and replacing LM2596 stages with 60 V bucks or industrial DC/DC modules.
No schematic/BOM changes were made yet, and PCB layout was not started. Approve Package A in the review file if you want me to apply the robust industrial corrections.
I’ll apply Package A at schematic/BOM level only: replace the unsafe low-side Q1 stage with a robust high-side protection/eFuse front end, update the transient strategy, and swap/annotate the regulator solution toward 60 V-capable industrial parts. I’ll verify datasheet requirements and rerun ERC; no PCB layout work will be started.
Applied Package A schematic/BOM corrections only; PCB layout was not started.
Updated the front end to TPS26630RGER + external blocking MOSFET, upgraded the input common-mode choke to Wurth 7448063801, documented LM2596 60 V-capable alternatives, and updated Engineering Risk Review Before PCB Layout. ERC review reports no errors or warnings.
Test points: TP_VIN, TP_24V_OUT, TP_12V, TP_5V, TP_0V, TP_PE.
Grounding: 0V/GND DC return, PE/CHASSIS connection point, selectable 0V-to-PE bonding by 0 ohm option, RC network option, or not fitted.
Component policy
Use real orderable components with MPNs for critical connectors, protection devices, regulators, and diagnostic active devices. Generic passives are allowed only for ordinary resistors and capacitors. Prefer -40 C to +85 C and common distributors.
Assumptions to be validated
Input source can supply total downstream load plus losses.
Outputs may be simultaneously loaded to rated minimum currents.
Diagnostic open-drain outputs are external pull-up compatible; default design will include protective series resistance and label external pull-up requirement unless an onboard diagnostic supply is selected.
Final EMC/surge levels and safety certification class are not specified and must be confirmed before layout/certification work.
Industrial 24 VDC input protection, distribution, regulated 12 V and 5 V outputs, diagnostics, test points, and selectable 0V-to-PE bonding. Schematic and BOM only; no PCB layout started.
