MP2672
Boost Charger with Cell Balance for
2-Cell Series Lithium-Ion Battery
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP2672 is a highly integrated, flexible
switch-mode battery charger IC for a Lithium-ion
battery with two cells in series, which is used in
a wide range of portable applications.
4.0V to 5.75V Input Operation Voltage
Up to 14V Sustainable Voltage
Up to 2A Programmable Charge Current for
Battery with 2 Cells in Series
Compatible with Host Control and
Standalone Mode
NVDC Power Path Management
Programmable Input Voltage Limit
Programmable Charge Voltage with 0.5%
Accuracy
No External Sense Resistor Required
Integrated Cell Balancing Circuit for Cell
Mismatch
Preconditioning for Fully Depleted Battery
Flexible New Charging Cycle Initiation
Charging Operation Indicator in Standalone
Mode
When the input power supply is present, the
MP2672 operates in boost mode to charge the
battery with two cells in series. When charging is
enabled, the MP2672 automatically detects the
battery voltage and charges the battery in three
phases: pre-charge, constant-current charge,
and constant-voltage charge. Other features
include charge termination and auto-recharge.
The MP2672 also has a narrow voltage DC
(NVDC) power structure. When the battery is
weak, the MP2672 regulates the system output
at the minimum voltage level to power the
system instantly and charge the battery via the
battery FET simultaneously.
Missing Battery Detection
I2C Port for Flexible System Parameter
Setting and Status Reporting in Host
Control Mode
The MP2672 also has cell balance function. It
monitors the voltage across each cell and
equalizes cell voltages once the difference
exceeds the mismatch threshold.
Negative Temperature Coefficient Pin for
Temperature Monitoring Compliant with
JEITA Standards
Built-In Charging Protection and
Programmable Safety Timer
MOSFET Cycle-by-Cycle Over-Current
Protection
Thermal Regulation and Thermal Shutdown
Available in a QFN-18 (2mmx3mm)
Package
The MP2672 has two configuration modes:
standalone mode and host control mode. In
standalone mode, the charging parameters can
be configured by the hardware pins. In host
control mode, the charging parameter can be
configured by the I2C registers.
The MP2672 has diversified and robust
protections. It has a thermal regulation loop to
decrease the charge current if the junction
temperature exceeds the thermal loop threshold.
It also has battery temperature protection
compliant with JEITA standards. Other safety
features include input over-voltage protection,
