MP2678
The Future of Analog IC Technology
Single-Cell, Li-Ion Battery Charger
Protection Circuit with Low-Dropout Mode
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP2678 is a high-performance, single-cell
Li-ion and Li-polymer battery charger protection
circuit with low-dropout mode. Its integrated
high-voltage input protection allows the IC to
tolerate input surges up to 30V.
The device operates similar to a linear regulator,
and maintains a regulated 5V output at input
voltages up to the over-voltage protection (OVP)
threshold (10.4V).
Full protection features include input OVP,
MPS’s proprietary battery OVP, and overcurrent protection (OCP). If a fault event occurs,
the internal N-channel MOSFET turns off to
disconnect the charging circuit from the input.
Fault indication is also provided to indicate
when a fault event occurs.

maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient 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 can cause excessive die temperature, and the
device may go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.

MP2678 – LI-ION BATTERY CHARGER PROTECTION IC WITH LOW-DROPOUT MODE
OPERATION
The MP2678 is a high-performance, single-cell
Li-ion and Li-polymer battery charger protection
IC. Its integrated high-voltage input protection
allows the IC to tolerate input surges up to 30V.
The device operates similar to a linear regulator,
and maintains a regulated 5V output at input
voltages up to the over-voltage protection (OVP)
threshold (10.4V).
Full protection features include input OVP, MPS
proprietary battery OVP, and over-current
protection (OCP). If a fault event occurs, the
internal N-channel MOSFET turns off to
disconnect the charging circuit from the input.
Fault indication is also provided to indicate
when a fault event occurs.
Thermal monitoring and thermal shutdown are
provided to guarantee safe operation. The
MP2678 monitors the internal temperature. If
the die temperature exceeds the thermal
shutdown threshold (typically 140°C), then the
N-channel MOSFET bridging the input and
output turns off.
For guaranteed safe operation, the MP2678
monitors its internal temperature and turns off
the N-MOSFET bridging VIN and OUT when
the die temperature exceeds 140ºC.
Power-On Reset
The MP2678 has a power-on reset (POR)
threshold of 2.8V, with a built-in hysteresis of
150mV. If the input voltage (VIN) drops below
the POR threshold, then the internal N-channel
MOSFET turns off. The IC resets itself and is
followed by an 8ms delay. If VIN and battery
voltage (VBATT) are at safe levels, then the Nchannel MOSFET turns on again. During a hot
insertion of the power supply, the 8ms delay
allows any transient to settle before the IC
resumes normal operation.
Input Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
The IC’s internal comparator monitors VIN
continuously. If the input voltage exceeds the
OVP threshold (VOVP), then the internal Nchannel MOSFET turns off within 1µs,
MP2678 Rev. 1.1
7/19/2021
preventing the high VIN from damaging the
electronics in the handheld system. Input OVP
has a typical threshold of 10.4V. Once the overvoltage (OV) condition is removed, then the Nchannel MOSFET turns on again. Due to the
8ms delay, the output is not enabled during a
fault condition where VIN quickly exceeds VOVP.
Battery Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
The battery OVP threshold (VBOVP) is set
internally to 4.35V. The threshold has an
integrated 150mV hysteresis. The VB pin
monitors VBATT. If VBATT exceeds VBOVP, then VB
issues an OV signal to turn off the N-channel
MOSFET. The internal comparator has a builtin blanking time (176µs) to prevent any
transient voltage from triggering an OV fault. If
the OV condition is still present after the
blanking time, then the power MOSFET turns
off.
Over-Current Protection (OCP)
The internal N-channel MOSFET’s current is
limited. This prevents charging the battery with
an excessive current. The OCP threshold is set
to 1.5A by default. If an over-current (OC)
condition occurs, the FLT pin is pulled low and
the timer (tREC(OCP)) begins. Once tREC(OCP)
expires, FLT is pulled high, and the part
restarts again after an 8ms delay.
Thermal Shutdown
The MP2678 monitors its die temperature to
prevent any thermal failure. When the internal
temperature reaches 140°C, the internal Nchannel MOSFET is turned off and the FLT pin
is pulled low. The IC does not resume operation
until the internal temperature drops below
120°C.
Enable (EN) Function
The MP2678 has an active-low CE pin that
enables and disables the IC. Pull CE high to
turn the internal N-channel MOSFET off; pull
CE low to turn it on and begin the start-up
sequence. CE has an internal pull-down
resistor that can remain unconnected.

MP2678 – LI-ION BATTERY CHARGER PROTECTION IC WITH LOW-DROPOUT MODE
APPLICATION INFORMATION
For safe and effective charging, certain
requirements have to be satisfied while
charging Li-Ion batteries, such as a high,
precise power source (4.2V ±50mV). For
charging, the accuracy should be above 1%.
For highly used capacity, VBATT should not be
charged to above 4.2V; otherwise, the
performance and battery life can suffer from
over-charging.
Linear battery chargers require pre-charge for
depleted batteries, charge voltage, charge
current, temperature monitoring, and thermal
shutdown. The typical output of an MPS linear
charger has an I-V curve, which provides OCP,
battery OVP, input OVP, and over-temperature
protection (OTP). The function of the MP2678 is
to add a redundant protection layer such that,
under any fault condition, the charging system
output does not exceed the I-V limits required
by the battery.
Additionally, the MP2678 provides full
protection features for chargers that do not
have complete protection (particularly for those
without input surge voltage sustainability). The
MP2678 guarantees the charge system’s safety
with its full protection features, including OVP,
battery OVP, OCP, and OTP.
An internal N-channel MOSFET regulates the
output voltage (VOUT) at 5V while VIN reaches
VOVP.
The MP2678 requires a minimal number of
standard, external components, in addition to
the linear charger circuit as shown in the
Typical Application Circuit on page 1.
Selecting the Input Capacitor (CIN) and
Output Capacitor (COUT)
The input capacitor (CIN) is used for decoupling.
A higher CIN capacitance reduces the voltage
drop and the overshoot during transients. The
AC adapter is inserted live (i.e. hot insertion).
The sudden step down of the current may
cause VIN to overshoot. During an input OV
condition, the N-channel MOSFET turns off in
less than 1µs, which can to significant
overshooting. A higher CIN capacitance reduces
this type of overshoot. However, overshoot
caused by a hot insertion is not entirely
dependent on the decoupling capacitance.
MP2678 Rev. 1.1
7/19/2021
It is recommended that CIN be a dielectric
ceramic capacitor between 1µF to 4.7µF.
The MP2678 output and charging circuit input
typically share one decoupling output capacitor
(COUT). The selection of COUT is predominately
determined by the charging circuit requirement.
When using the MP2602 family chargers, it is
recommended that COUT be a 1µF to 4.7uF
ceramic capacitor.
Selecting the VB Resistor (RVB)
RVB limits the current from the VB pin to the
battery terminal in case the MP2678 fails. It is
recommended that the RVB resistance be
between 200kΩ to 1MΩ. For example, during a
failure operation, the worst-case scenario for
the current flowing from VB to the charger
output can be calculated with Equation (1):
(VVB - VBATT) / RVB = 130µA
(1)
Where RVB is 200kΩ, the VB pin voltage (VVB) is
30V, and VBATT is 4.2V.
Such small currents can be absorbed easily by
the bias current of other components. A largervalue resistor reduces the worst-case scenario
current. However, a larger-value resistor can
increase the error of the battery’s OVP
threshold (4.35V).
The typical VB leakage current is 20nA. the
error of VBOVP can be calculated with Equation
(2):
4.35V + 20nA x RVB
(2)
With a 200kΩ resistor, the worst-case scenario
for the additional error is 4mV. With a 1MΩ
resistor, the worst-case additional error is 20mV.
Selecting the
Resistor (RFLT)
pin is pulled
If a fault events occurs, the
low and the pull-up resistor (RFLT) limits the sink
current (ISINK). The maximum ISINK should not
exceed 5mA during the worst-case scenario,
which means that VIN should be 30V. Then the
RFLT can be calculated with Equation (3):
RFLT > 30V / 5mA = 6kΩ
(3)
It is recommended that RFLT be between 6kΩ to
200kΩ. When using an LED driver to indicate
the status, select a smaller-value resistor (e.g.
6.04kΩ) to drive the LED.
