MP2618
2A, 24V Input, 600kHz
2-3 Cell Switching Li-Ion Battery Charger
With System Power Path Management
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP2618 is a monolithic switching charger
for 2-3 cell Li-Ion battery packs with a built-in
internal power MOSFET. It achieves up to 2A
charge current with current mode control for
fast loop response and easy compensation.
The charge current can be programmed by
sensing the current through an accurate sense
resistor.

MP2618 regulates the charge voltage and
charge current using two control loops to realize
high accuracy CC charge and CV charge.
The system power path management function
ensures continuous supply to the system by
automatically selecting the input or the battery.
Power path management separates charging
current from system load. When the MP2618
realizes current sharing of the input current,
charge current will drop down according to the
increase of the system current.

Netbook PC
Distributed Power Systems
Chargers for 2-Cell or 3-Cell Li-Ion
Batteries
Fault condition protection includes cycle-by-cycle
current limiting, and thermal shutdown. Other
safety features include battery temperature
monitoring, charge status indication and
programmable timer to cease the charging cycle.
