MP2626GR-Z

Overview

The MP2626GR-Z is a USB-compliant single-cell switching charger designed for lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries. It integrates a power-path management system and supports USB On-The-Go (OTG) boost functionality, allowing the device to supply power to external peripherals when the main input source is unavailable. The component operates within a standard USB voltage range and utilizes a compact QFN package suitable for space-constrained portable electronics.

Feature Summary

• Integrates USB-compliant charging with automatic power-path management
• Supports USB On-The-Go (OTG) boost mode for peripheral power supply
• Designed for single-cell lithium-ion and lithium-polymer battery chemistries

Applications

• Smartphones and mobile phones
• Portable media players
• Bluetooth headsets and earbuds
• Wearable health devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GR-Z' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and RoHS status. Ensure the application design accounts for the integrated OTG boost requirements if that feature is utilized in the final product architecture.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a single-chip solution that combines charging and host-mode power delivery. It is appropriate for designs where board space is limited and USB compliance is mandatory. Compare against non-boost variants if peripheral power supply is not required.

Part Context

This part belongs to Monolithic Power Systems' MP26xx series of battery chargers. It is positioned as a specialized solution for USB-powered consumer electronics, distinguishing itself from standard chargers by including bidirectional power capabilities through its OTG feature set.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MPS single-cell USB chargers such as the MP2623 or MP2624, provided the specific OTG boost requirement is evaluated against the target replacement's capabilities.
