Product details
Overview
MP2624GL-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a 4.5A I²C-controlled switching-mode Li-ion/Li-polymer battery charger IC with narrow VDC (NVDC) power path management, USB OTG boost capability (up to 1.3A at 5V), and integrated reverse-blocking MOSFET. It delivers ±0.5% charge voltage regulation, supports 3.9–7.0V input, and enables instant-on operation with no or deeply discharged battery in tablets, smartphones, and MIDs.
For engineers reviewing the MP2624GL-Z datasheet, MP2624GL-Z pinout, MP2624GL-Z application, or MP2624GL-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include NVDC system voltage tracking accuracy (±2% in boost mode), programmable input current limit (100–900mA via ILIM or I²C), battery discharge FET on-resistance (10mΩ), thermal shutdown threshold (184°C), and I²C-configurable charge termination current (128–1024mA).
Technical Context
The MP2624GL-Z implements constant-off-time (COT) control for fast transient response and reduced charging time under low-input-voltage conditions (e.g., 4.5V USB). Its NVDC architecture decouples SYS and BATT via a 10mΩ battery FET, enabling system voltage regulation independently of battery state - maintaining VSYS ≥ 3.6V even at VBATT = 0V.
USB BC1.2 detection is performed autonomously using DP/DM pins, triggering host notification for input current limit selection; simultaneously, the integrated 1.5MHz buck-boost converter supports bidirectional power flow - charging the battery from IN and supplying 5V/1.3A to SYS during OTG mode with 94% efficiency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Charge Current | Up to 4.5A - enables full single-cell Li-ion charge in under 1 hour with minimal thermal derating. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.9V to 7.0V - supports standard USB 2.0/3.0 ports (5V) and 5–6.5V wall adapters without external LDO. |
| Battery FET RDS(on) | 10mΩ - minimizes conduction loss during battery supplement mode, sustaining >9A pulsed discharge. |
| Charge Voltage Accuracy | ±0.5% - ensures precise 4.2V (or I²C-programmable 3.48–4.425V) regulation to prevent overcharge and extend cycle life. |
| OTG Output | 5V ±2%, up to 1.3A - powers USB peripherals directly from battery with automatic enable/disable via I²C register REG02[1:0]. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 184°C rising threshold - protects die integrity during sustained high-power operation in compact QFN-22 packages. |
| I²C Interface | 400kHz standard mode - allows real-time monitoring of charge status, fault flags (INT), and dynamic reconfiguration of all critical parameters. |
Pinout & Package
MP2624GL-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced QFN-22 package (3mm × 4mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. The package supports high-current routing and efficient PCB heat dissipation in space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 DP | USB data line positive | Enables automatic USB host/charging port detection per BC1.2 spec; requires no external pull-up. |
| 2 IN | Main power input | Accepts 3.9–7.0V from USB or adapter; internal 25mΩ reverse-blocking MOSFET eliminates need for external diode. |
| 3 PMID | Internal power rail | Drain node of reverse-blocking FET and high-side switch; bypassed with 4.7μF capacitor for stable gate drive. |
| 4,14 SW | Switching node | Connects to external 2.2μH inductor; carries high-frequency buck converter current with <2.0MHz switching. |
| 5 PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for IN, SW, and BATT; must be low-inductance plane adjacent to thermal pad. |
| 7 SCL / 8 SDA | I²C interface | Enable full configuration of charge profiles, safety thresholds, and status reporting; 10kΩ pull-ups required. |
| 10 ILIM | Analog input current limit | Resistor-programmable minimum IIN limit (100–900mA); overrides I²C setting when lower. |
| 12 OTG | OTG enable / USB current select | Hardware-selectable USB current limit (100/500mA) when OTG disabled; I²C-controlled OTG activation otherwise. |
| 15 SYS | System output rail | Regulated NVDC bus (3.6–4.525V); powers SoC/display even with 0V battery via ideal diode operation. |
| 16 BATT | Battery terminal | Connects to single-cell Li-ion pack; integrates 10mΩ discharge FET for up to 9A pulse current. |
| 17 DISC | Battery disconnect control | Active-low pin to disable battery discharge path; prevents self-discharge during shipping mode (IQ = 65μA). |
| 18 CE | Charge enable | Hardware override for charging; low = enabled only if corresponding I²C register is also active. |
| 19 NTC | Battery temperature sense | Accepts NTC thermistor divider; supports four-zone thermal window (cold/cool/warm/hot) with hysteresis. |
| 20 STAT | Charging status indicator | Open-drain output signaling charge progress (trickle/pre/CC/CV) and fault conditions. |
| 21 INT | Interrupt output | Open-drain alert for critical events: OVP, thermal shutdown, NTC out-of-range, timer timeout. |
| 22 DM | USB data line negative | Paired with DP for BC1.2 enumeration; sink current (50–150μA) enables reliable port classification. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar single-cell Li-ion charger applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ25618RTWR | Lower max charge current (3A), no integrated OTG boost, uses PMBus instead of I²C, 12-bit ADC for NTC. | Lacks native 5V/1.3A OTG output - requires external boost IC for peripheral powering. | Select when OTG is not required and higher-resolution thermal monitoring justifies added complexity. |
| ISL9238HRZ-T7A | Higher input voltage range (4–20V), includes integrated 20V OVP clamp, but larger 4×4mm QFN-32 package. | Designed for ruggedized industrial tablets; lacks BC1.2 auto-detection and has fixed 4.2V charge voltage. | Prefer for wide-input adapter compatibility where USB port detection and I²C flexibility are secondary. |
Compared with BQ25618RTWR and ISL9238HRZ-T7A, MP2624GL-Z uniquely combines 4.5A charge, integrated OTG, BC1.2 detection, and 3×4mm footprint - making it optimal for consumer portable devices prioritizing size, feature integration, and USB ecosystem compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported battery capacity for MP2624GL-Z?
The MP2624GL-Z does not impose a hard upper limit on battery capacity. It supports any single-cell Li-ion or Li-polymer pack rated up to 4.425V full-charge voltage and capable of accepting up to 4.5A continuous charge current. Designers must ensure external components (inductor, capacitors, PCB traces) are rated for the target capacity's peak current and thermal profile.
How does the NVDC power path behave when the battery is removed?
With no battery connected, the MP2624GL-Z regulates SYS at the I²C-programmed VSYS_MIN (e.g., 3.6V) plus 50mV or 100mV offset. The battery FET remains off, and the system draws power solely from the input source through the buck converter - enabling full functionality without battery presence.
Can MP2624GL-Z operate from a 9V input adapter?
No. The absolute maximum input voltage is +20V, but the recommended operating range is strictly 3.9V to 7.0V per datasheet specifications. A 9V adapter exceeds the 7.0V upper limit and risks violating safe operating area - potentially triggering overvoltage protection or damaging internal MOSFETs.
What is the role of the DISC pin in shipping mode?
The DISC pin controls the battery discharge FET. Pulling DISC low for ≥6.6 seconds disables the FET, isolating the battery from SYS and reducing quiescent current to 65μA. This prevents self-discharge during storage and satisfies OEM shipping mode requirements without requiring I²C intervention.
Does MP2624GL-Z support USB PD input negotiation?
No. MP2624GL-Z implements USB Battery Charging Spec 1.2 (BC1.2) for legacy USB port detection and current limit selection (100/500/900mA), but lacks USB Power Delivery (PD) protocol stack or CC logic. It accepts only fixed 5V input and cannot negotiate higher voltages or currents via PD.
How is thermal regulation implemented during high-current charging?
MP2624GL-Z uses on-die thermal sensing to reduce charge current progressively as junction temperature rises above 125°C, maintaining safe operation without abrupt shutdown. Full thermal shutdown activates only at 184°C, providing robust margin for transient loads in thermally constrained layouts.
What NTC thermistor values are compatible with the NTC pin?
The NTC pin interfaces with standard 10kΩ NTC thermistors (e.g., Murata NCP15XH103D03RC) using a resistor divider from VNTC to NTC to AGND. The datasheet specifies voltage thresholds (70.9–47.9% of VNTC) corresponding to temperature windows - exact values depend on thermistor B-parameter and calibration.
