Monolithic Power Systems Introduces Battery Management IC for Consumer Electronics
Monolithic Power Systems Introduces the MP2755: A Game-Changer for 2-Cell Li-Ion Battery Charging
Monolithic Power Systems (MPS), a frontrunner in high-performance power solutions, unveils the MP2755. This innovative device is a highly integrated, bidirectional charging solution specifically designed for 2-cell Lithium-ion (Li-ion) or Lithium-polymer (Li-polymer) batteries.
Bidirectional Power with Efficiency and Flexibility
The MP2755 empowers seamless charging and power delivery in various applications. Here's what makes it stand out:
- Bidirectional Switched Capacitor Converter: This architecture facilitates efficient power conversion in both directions - charging the battery (reverse mode) and supplying power to the system (forward mode).
- Forward 2:1 Conversion: Steps up the voltage from a single cell to power the system in forward mode.
- Reverse 1:2 Conversion: Reduces the voltage from two cells for safe and efficient battery charging in reverse mode.
- Dual-Phase Operation: Provides up to 10A of output current (IOUT) in forward mode, ensuring sufficient power delivery for demanding applications.
- 5A Charge Current Capability: Efficiently charges 2-cell Li-ion or Li-polymer batteries in reverse mode.
- Up to 99.3% Efficiency: Minimizes power loss during operation, maximizing battery life and system efficiency.
Simplified Integration for 2-Cell Battery Applications
The MP2755 streamlines the transition from 1-cell to 2-cell battery configurations:
- Virtual 1-Cell Operation: When working with a 2-cell battery, the MP2755 acts as a virtual 1-cell, ensuring compatibility with existing downstream 1-cell power architectures. This eliminates the need for extensive design modifications.
Advanced Features for Enhanced Functionality
The MP2755 boasts a comprehensive set of features to optimize performance and control:
- Shipping Mode: Minimizes battery drain during storage or transportation by shutting down the V1X output.
- System Reset: Provides a convenient method for system restart or fault recovery.
- I2C Interface: Enables comprehensive control over the MP2755's operation, including configuration of charging/discharging parameters and real-time status monitoring.
Compact and Convenient Packaging
The MP2755 comes in a space-saving WLCSP-42 (2.9 mm x 2.55 mm) package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
