Product details
Overview
MP2631DQ-LF-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a linear single-cell Li-ion/Li-polymer battery charger with integrated 5V/10mA high-voltage LDO, 28V input surge tolerance, programmable 200mA–1A CC/CV charging, and thermal shutdown. It operates from 3.5V–5.5V input, delivers ±0.75% battery voltage regulation, and supports charge status (CHG) and AC OK (ACOK) indication in portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the MP2631DQ-LF-Z datasheet, MP2631DQ-LF-Z pinout, MP2631DQ-LF-Z application, or MP2631DQ-LF-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its 28V surge-rated input protection, dual-function LDO operation during SHDN mode, OVP-triggered automatic disconnect, and precise 4.20V ±0.02V CV threshold for safe lithium chemistry compliance.
Technical Context
The MP2631DQ-LF-Z implements a linear charging architecture with fixed 4.20V constant-voltage regulation and externally programmable constant-current via ISET resistor (100–1000mA range). Its internal OVP circuit disconnects both charger and LDO when VIN exceeds 7.0V (typ), with 400mV hysteresis and 2.1V UVLO threshold.
The integrated LDO remains active across SHDN states as long as VIN stays within 3V–7V, delivering regulated 5.0V ±150mV up to 10mA load; it enters dropout below 5.1V input and shuts off above 7.0V. Thermal limiting activates at 120°C (typ), with 10°C hysteresis and soft shutdown behavior.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Charge Current Range | 200mA to 1A, set by external ISET resistor; enables flexible battery capacity matching without IC replacement. |
| Battery Regulation Accuracy | ±0.75% over –5°C to +75°C; ensures reliable full-charge termination and prevents overvoltage stress on Li-ion cells. |
| LDO Output | 5.0V ±150mV at 0–10mA load; provides stable watchdog supply independent of charger enable state. |
| Input Surge Rating | 28V absolute max on IN pin; eliminates need for external TVS in USB/adapter-input systems with transient risk. |
| OVP Threshold | 7.0V (typ), with 400mV hysteresis; automatically isolates charger and LDO from overvoltage events to protect battery and system. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 120°C (typ), with 10°C hysteresis; prevents thermal runaway in compact PCB layouts with limited copper area. |
| Reverse Battery Current | <1µA when SHDN = low and input floating; avoids parasitic discharge during storage or fault conditions. |
Pinout & Package
MP2631DQ-LF-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced 10-pin 3mm × 3mm QFN package with exposed thermal pad (pin 5), rated for –40°C to +85°C operation. The package supports high-power dissipation (θJA = 50°C/W) and requires soldering of the exposed pad to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IN | Input Supply | Accepts 3.5–5.5V nominal adapter/USB input; withstands up to 28V transients before OVP activation. |
| 2 SS/NC | Soft-Start Control / No Connect | Open-circuit enables internal soft-start; external capacitor adds controlled current ramp to limit inrush. |
| 3 ACOK | Open-Drain Input Status | Pulled low when 2.1V < VIN < 7.0V; signals valid input power to host microcontroller or PMIC. |
| 4 CHG | Open-Drain Charge Status | Pulled low during active charging; floats high at termination or fault-directly drives LED or GPIO. |
| 5 GND | Ground Reference & Thermal Pad | Must be connected to solid ground plane; exposed pad is primary thermal path and functional ground node. |
| 6 SHDN | Charger Enable/Disable | Logic-low or open enables charging; logic-high disables all functions except LDO (if VIN in range). |
| 7 NC | No Connection | Unbonded pin; must remain unconnected and unpopulated on PCB. |
| 8 ISET | Charge Current Programming | Connects to GND via precision resistor (e.g., 3.1kΩ for 500mA); sets CC value with ±13% variation over temperature. |
| 9 BATT | Battery Output | Delivers regulated CC/CV charge current directly to single-cell Li-ion anode; includes trickle mode below 2.6V. |
| 10 LDO | LDO Output | Provides 5V system supply up to 10mA; remains active during SHDN if VIN is 3–7V-ideal for charge monitoring circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 5V/10mA LDO with SHDN persistence | LDO stays ON during SHDN mode if VIN ∈ [3V, 7V], enabling continuous system monitoring without separate regulator. |
| 28V input surge tolerance with auto-OVP disconnect | Internal protection circuit cuts off both charger and LDO when VIN > 7.0V, eliminating need for external clamping diodes or TVS. |
| Programmable CC/CV charge profile with auto-recharge | Recharges when VBATT falls to 4.0V (±100mV hysteresis), supporting long-term battery maintenance in always-on devices. |
| 0.75% battery voltage accuracy over temperature | Ensures consistent 4.20V CV termination across –5°C to +75°C, critical for cycle life and safety in consumer Li-ion applications. |
| <1µA reverse battery leakage | Prevents self-discharge when input is removed or SHDN asserted-extends shelf life and reduces standby power loss. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear Li-ion charger with integrated LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ24040DRCT | Fixed 4.2V CV, no programmable CC; LDO output disabled in shutdown; 20V max input rating. | Lacks 28V surge tolerance and SHDN-persistent LDO-unsuitable for adapter-input systems with transient risk or always-on monitoring needs. | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs surge immunity and LDO continuity requirements. |
| TP4056 | No integrated LDO; 1A fixed CC only; no OVP beyond 7V; no ACOK/CHG status pins; 6V max input. | Requires external LDO, OVP, and status logic-increases BOM, layout complexity, and failure points in production. | Use only in ultra-low-cost, non-safety-critical applications where input is strictly regulated ≤5.5V. |
Compared with BQ24040DRCT and TP4056, MP2631DQ-LF-Z uniquely combines 28V surge resilience, SHDN-mode LDO persistence, and dual open-drain status outputs-enabling simpler, more robust, and smaller-footprint charging subsystems in USB-powered portable electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for continuous operation?
The MP2631DQ-LF-Z operates continuously within 3.5V to 5.5V input range. While its absolute maximum rating is 28V for transient surge protection, sustained input above 7.0V triggers OVP and disconnects both charger and LDO. Operation above 5.5V is not recommended for reliability and thermal performance.
How does the LDO behave when the SHDN pin is asserted?
When SHDN is driven high, the charger is disabled but the LDO remains active as long as VIN is between 3V and 7V. This allows continuous 5V supply to monitoring circuits (e.g., fuel gauge, RTC) without requiring a second regulator, simplifying power architecture in battery-backed systems.
Can the MP2631DQ-LF-Z charge a deeply discharged battery?
Yes-it initiates trickle charge at 10% of the programmed ICHG (e.g., 50mA for 500mA setting) when VBATT falls below 2.6V, rising to full CC once VBATT reaches 2.6V. Trickle mode prevents lithium plating and enables safe recovery of batteries down to 2.3V.
What is the purpose of the SS/NC pin, and how should it be used?
The SS/NC pin controls soft-start behavior. Leaving it open enables internal fixed soft-start, preventing inrush current during initial charge. Connecting an external capacitor (e.g., 100nF) adds programmable ramp time-critical for avoiding input voltage droop in weak USB sources or shared power rails.
Does the MP2631DQ-LF-Z support automatic recharge, and at what voltage threshold?
Yes-the device automatically reinitiates charging when VBATT drops to 4.0V (typical), with 100mV hysteresis. This ensures battery voltage is maintained near full capacity during intermittent usage, extending usable runtime in always-on portable devices like smartwatches or Bluetooth headsets.
How is battery voltage regulation accuracy affected by temperature?
Battery voltage regulation maintains ±0.75% accuracy over –5°C to +75°C ambient, corresponding to ±31.5mV deviation from 4.20V nominal. This stability is achieved via on-chip trimming and is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VBATT" parameter.
What thermal management considerations apply to the QFN package?
The 3mm × 3mm QFN package requires connection of the exposed thermal pad (pin 5) to a minimum 100mm² copper pour on the PCB for effective heat dissipation. Without proper thermal land, junction temperature may exceed 120°C under 1A charge current at 5.5V input, triggering soft thermal shutdown.
