MP2618
The Future of Analog IC Technology
2A, 24V Input, 600kHz
2-3 Cell Switching Li-Ion Battery Charger
With System Power Path Management
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.
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.

Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-to-ambient
thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature TA. The
maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at any
ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ (MAX)TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will
cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into
thermal shutdown. Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects
the device from permanent damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its operating
conditions.

MP2618 – 2A, 24V INPUT, 600kHz 2-3CELL SWITCHING LI-ION BATTERY CHARGER
OPERATION
The MP2618 is a peak current mode controlled
switching charger for use with Li-Ion batteries.
Figure 2 shows the block diagram. At the
beginning of a cycle, M1 is off. The COMP
voltage is higher than the current sense result
from amplifier A1’s output and the PWM
comparator’s output is low. The rising edge of the
600 kHz CLK signal sets the RS Flip-Flop. Its
output turns on M1 thus connecting the SW pin
and inductor to the input supply.
The increasing inductor current is sensed and
amplified by the Current Sense Amplifier A1.
Ramp compensation is summed to the output of
A1 and compared to COMP by the PWM
comparator.
When the sum of A1’s output and the Slope
Compensation signal exceeds the COMP
voltage, the RS Flip-Flop is reset and M1 turns
off. The external switching diode D1 then
conducts the inductor current.
If the sum of A1’s output and the Slope
Compensation signal does not exceed the COMP
voltage, then the falling edge of the CLK resets
the Flip-Flop.
The MP2618 have two internal linear regulators
power internal circuit, VREF33 and VREF25. The
output of 3.3V reference voltage can also power
external circuitry as long as the maximum current
(50mA) is not exceeded. A 1µF bypass capacitor
is required from VREF33 to GND to ensure
stability.
Charge Cycle (Mode change: TrickleÆ CCÆ
CV)
The battery current is sensed via RS1 (Figure 2)
and amplified by A2. The charge will start in
“trickle charging mode” (10% of the RSEN
programmed current ICC) until the battery voltage
reaches 3V/cell. If the charge stays in the “trickle
charging mode” till “timer out” condition triggered,
and the charge is terminated. Otherwise, the
output of A2 is then regulated to the level set by
RS1. The charger is operating at “constant
current charging mode.” The duty cycle of the
switcher is determined by the COMPI voltage
that is regulated by the amplifier GMI.
MP2618 Rev. 0.92
7/14/2010
When the battery voltage reaches the “constant
voltage mode” threshold, the amplifier GMV will
regulate the COMP pin, and then the duty cycle.
The charger will then operate in “constant voltage
mode.”
Automatic Recharge
Once the battery charging current drops below
the termination threshold, the charger will cease
charging and the CHGOK pin becomes an open
drain. If for some reason, the battery voltage is
lowered to 4.0V/Cell, recharge will automatically
kick in.
Charger Status Indication
MP2618 has two open-drain status outputs:
CHGOK and ACOK . The ACOK pin pulls low
when an input voltage is greater than battery
voltage 300mV and over the under voltage
lockout threshold. CHGOK is used to indicate the
status of the charge cycle. Table 1 describes the
status of the charge cycle based on the
CHGOK and ACOK outputs.
