MP2617BGL-P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MP2617BGL-P is an active lithium-ion battery charger IC manufactured by Monolithic Power Systems Inc., designed for single-cell battery charging applications. This Power Management IC integrates constant-current/constant-voltage charging control with programmable timer functionality and over-temperature fault protection. The device operates across a wide supply voltage range up to 10V and supports USB interface connectivity, making it suitable for portable consumer electronics and battery management systems requiring compact, integrated charging solutions.

Finding equivalent and substitute parts may be necessary due to supply chain constraints, inventory availability, or specific packaging requirements for manufacturing processes.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MP2617BGL-P is limited to variants within the same base product family (MP2617) that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary substitution criterion is the preservation of all critical parameters: single-cell lithium-ion charging capability, 4.2V battery pack voltage, 10V maximum supply voltage, programmable constant-current charging, timer functionality, over-temperature protection, USB interface, and 20-QFN (3x4) package footprint.

The MP2617BGL-Z qualifies as a parametric equivalent because it shares all electrical characteristics and the identical package form factor. The only distinction between these parts is the packaging format: MP2617BGL-P is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while MP2617BGL-Z is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, MSL rating, and product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MP2617BGL-P and MP2617BGL-Z are active products with identical electrical specifications and regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging and supply chain requirements:

MP2617BGL-P in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly processes where continuous reel feeding is required. MP2617BGL-Z in Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® format provides flexibility for lower-volume production runs or mixed-component assembly scenarios.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), ensuring compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes and long-term storage without special handling requirements. The identical operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C junction temperature) and product status (Active) confirm ongoing manufacturer support and availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are MP2617BGL-P and MP2617BGL-Z electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications including charging current programmability, timer functionality, over-temperature protection, USB interface, and all voltage/temperature ratings. They are parametric equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between these substitute parts?

A: The only difference is packaging format. MP2617BGL-P uses Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while MP2617BGL-Z uses Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging. The physical component and PCB footprint are identical.

Q: Can I use MP2617BGL-Z as a direct replacement for MP2617BGL-P in my design?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. The 20-QFN (3x4) package footprint is identical, and all functional parameters match. Verify that your assembly process can accommodate the different tape format if switching between these parts.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both MP2617BGL-P and MP2617BGL-Z are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical regulatory certifications.

Q: What is the MSL rating for these parts?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), meaning they do not require special moisture control during storage or handling.
