Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MP26060EQ-LF-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer & Series: Both parts are manufactured by Monolithic Power Systems and share the same base product number (MP26060)
• Battery Chemistry & Cell Count: Single-cell lithium-ion charging capability
• Electrical Specifications: Identical maximum charge current (1A), battery pack voltage (4.15V), maximum supply voltage (24V), and operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 85°C)
• Protection Features: Matching over-current and over-voltage fault protection
• Package & Mounting: Identical 10-VFDFN exposed pad package in surface mount configuration
• Compliance & Certifications: Matching RoHS3 compliance, MSL rating, REACH status, and ECCN classification

The substitute part MP26060EQ-LF-Z differs only in packaging designation (tape & reel variant code), representing the same die and electrical functionality with different supply chain handling.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MP26060EQ-LF-P and MP26060EQ-LF-Z are active products from Monolithic Power Systems with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is based on supply chain and inventory considerations rather than technical differentiation.

MP26060EQ-LF-P is suitable for applications where standard tape & reel packaging with the -P designation is specified in procurement or design documentation. MP26060EQ-LF-Z provides equivalent functionality and is appropriate where the -Z packaging variant is acceptable or preferred due to inventory availability.

Both parts maintain full compliance with ROHS3, REACH, and EAR99 export classifications. The MSL 1 rating indicates unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions, supporting long-term inventory management without moisture bake-out requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are MP26060EQ-LF-P and MP26060EQ-LF-Z electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share the same base product number (MP26060), die design, and electrical specifications. All functional parameters including charge current, battery voltage, supply voltage, protection features, and operating temperature range are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the -P and -Z designations?

A: The suffix designates packaging and supply chain handling variants. Both represent the same component with different tape & reel configurations. The electrical and mechanical package specifications (10-VFDFN exposed pad, surface mount) remain unchanged.

Q: Can I substitute MP26060EQ-LF-Z for MP26060EQ-LF-P in production?

A: Yes, provided your design documentation and procurement specifications permit the -Z variant. No circuit design changes, PCB layout modifications, or requalification are required due to identical package geometry and pinout.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, MSL 1 rating, and EAR99 export classification.

Q: What is the MSL 1 rating significance?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life. These components do not require moisture bake-out procedures before soldering and can be stored indefinitely under standard conditions (23°C, 50% relative humidity).
