Product details
Overview
MP2611GL-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a monolithic 2A switching battery charger IC for single-cell Li-Ion batteries, integrating high-side P-Channel and low-side N-Channel MOSFETs. It supports dual-input operation (4.5–6V AC adapter or USB), delivers ±0.5% battery voltage regulation, enables 100% duty-cycle operation near input-output voltage crossover, and includes NTC-based temperature monitoring and programmable safety timer - deployed in portable media players requiring compact, thermally robust charging.
For engineers reviewing the MP2611GL-Z datasheet, MP2611GL-Z pinout, MP2611GL-Z application, or MP2611GL-Z equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world charge profile behavior, confirmed thermal shutdown threshold (150°C), and documented USB/AC input current limit programming via RILIM - all critical for USB3.0-compliant portable power design and BOM validation.
Technical Context
The MP2611GL-Z implements a synchronous buck topology with integrated high-side PFET (130 mΩ RDS(ON)) and low-side NFET (200 mΩ RDS(ON)), enabling up to 2A charge current and 100% duty cycle when VIN ≈ VBATT. Its dual-input architecture uses independent UVLO thresholds (3.75V) on ACIN and USBIN pins, with automatic priority given to ACIN when both inputs are present.
Two closed-loop control paths govern operation: a current-sense amplifier (A3) referenced to CSP–BATT monitors charge current via RS1, while a voltage error amplifier (GMV) regulates VBATT to 4.2V ±0.5%. STAT1/STAT2 open-drain outputs encode five discrete states-including charging, end-of-charge, thermal fault, and input absent-via logic combinations pulled to VREF33.

Pinout & Package
MP2611GL-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced 3mm × 4mm QFN-14 package with exposed thermal pad on underside. Pin numbering follows top-view layout with pin 1 at top-left corner (see MPS package drawing MP2611 Rev. 1.12, p.2).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ACIN (Pin 1) | Primary DC input supply | Accepts 4.5–6V adapter input; triggers UVLO at 3.75V rising edge; takes priority over USBIN when both active. |
| PGND (Pin 2) | Power ground reference | Low-impedance return path for switching currents; must be routed outside SW-to-input loop to avoid noise coupling. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node output | Drives external inductor; connects to drain of internal high-side PFET and source of low-side NFET. |
| USBIN (Pin 4) | Secondary DC input supply | Accepts 4.5–6V USB input; enables charge when ACIN <3.75V; current limited via USBM resistor network. |
| AGND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Reference for VREF33, NTC, TMR, and USBM; must be star-connected to PGND at single point to minimize offset. |
| VREF33 (Pin 6) | Internal 3.3V LDO output | Stable 3.3V ±2% reference powering STAT pull-ups, NTC divider, and external circuitry; load regulated to 20mA. |
| USBM (Pin 7) | USB current limit set | Connects to AGND via RILIM (e.g., 45.3kΩ → 900mA); sets input current limit only in USB mode, not AC mode. |
| BATT (Pin 8) | Battery positive terminal | Direct connection to Li-Ion anode; senses battery voltage and enables reverse-blocking protection when inputs inactive. |
| CSP (Pin 9) | Current sense positive | High-side current sense input; forms differential pair with BATT across RS1 to measure charge current with 100mV full-scale. |
| EN (Pin 10) | Enable control input | Active-high logic: <0.8V = disable (shutdown current 0.2µA), >1.2V = enable; controls entire charger operation. |
| STAT1 / STAT2 (Pins 11–12) | Status indicator outputs | Open-drain NMOS outputs pulled to VREF33; encode 5 states (charging, done, fault, input absent) via logic combinations. |
| NTC (Pin 13) | Thermistor interface | Connects to NTC thermistor and VREF33 divider; monitors battery temperature via window comparator (0°C–50°C typical range). |
| TMR (Pin 14) | Safety timer capacitor | Connects to AGND via CTMR (e.g., 0.1µF → 3hr total charge time); disables timer when shorted to AGND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated synchronous buck switches | Eliminates need for external Schottky diode; achieves >90% efficiency at 2A with 2.2µH inductor and 5V input. |
| Reverse-blocking protection | No external diode required; internal PFET blocks battery discharge into inactive ACIN/USBIN ports (min VIN–VBATT = 200mV). |
| Programmable USB current limit | Supports dual USB standards: 500mA (USB2.0) and 900mA (USB3.0) via single RILIM resistor on USBM pin. |
| Accurate CC/CV charge control | Two independent control loops maintain ±0.5% VBATT and ±3% ICHG across temperature and input voltage variation. |
| Auto-recharge and trickle charge | Reinitiates charge when VBATT drops below 4.0V after full-charge; starts at 10% ICC (200mA @ 2A setting) if VBATT <3V. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous charge current supported by MP2611GL-Z?
The MP2611GL-Z supports up to 2A continuous charge current, programmable via the RS1 sense resistor (e.g., 50mΩ yields 2A). This value is validated across the full 4.5–6V input range and -40°C to +125°C junction temperature, with cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection limiting peak current to 3.5A.
How does MP2611GL-Z handle simultaneous ACIN and USBIN connection?
MP2611GL-Z automatically prioritizes ACIN when both inputs are present: ACIN UVLO (3.75V) enables Q1, disabling Q2 and routing power exclusively through the AC path. The datasheet explicitly warns against sustained dual-input operation due to potential regulator instability and recommends physical isolation or sequencing control.
Can the safety timer be disabled, and how?
Yes, the internal safety timer can be fully disabled by connecting the TMR pin directly to AGND. When grounded, the timer circuit is bypassed and no timeout occurs - allowing indefinite CV charging. With CTMR = 0.1µF, total charge time is 3 hours and trickle time is 30 minutes.
What is the role of the VREF33 pin beyond powering STAT pull-ups?
VREF33 provides a precision 3.3V ±2% output used as bias for the NTC thermistor divider, reference for the USBM current-limit comparator, and supply for external circuitry requiring stable low-noise voltage. It delivers up to 20mA with ±0.2V load regulation, and its accuracy directly impacts NTC threshold consistency and USB current limit tolerance.
Does MP2611GL-Z require an external reverse-blocking diode?
No. MP2611GL-Z integrates reverse-blocking protection using its high-side P-Channel MOSFET, which prevents battery discharge into inactive ACIN or USBIN ports. The datasheet specifies a minimum VIN–VBATT headroom of 200mV for reliable blocking, eliminating the need for external diodes and associated forward-voltage losses.
How is USB input current limit programmed, and what resistor values are recommended?
USB input current limit is set by connecting RILIM between USBM and AGND. Per Equation (3) in the datasheet: IUSB_LIM ≈ 37000/RILIM (mA). Recommended values are 82.5kΩ for 500mA (USB2.0) and 45.3kΩ for 900mA (USB3.0); RILIM must exceed 18.5kΩ to ensure full 0–2A range.
What thermal performance can be expected in a typical 4-layer PCB layout?
In a JESD51-7 4-layer PCB layout, MP2611GL-Z exhibits θJA = 48°C/W and θJC = 10°C/W. At 2A charge current and 5V input, typical power dissipation is ~0.8W, resulting in ~40°C junction rise above ambient - well below the 150°C thermal shutdown threshold and enabling continuous operation without forced airflow.
