MCP73871-2AAI/ML Обзор
A battery charger IC is an integrated circuit that manages the safe charging of a rechargeable cell by enforcing the constant-current / constant-voltage (CC/CV) profile, monitoring cell temperature, and terminating charge when full. Load-sharing battery chargers add input-current limiting and a power-path control loop so the system load is preferentially served by the input source, with the battery providing only the deficit. The MCP73871 family sits in the broader hierarchy: charger IC -> battery management -> power management IC -> semiconductor, and is commonly deployed where USB or a wall adapter powers a portable product backed by a single Li-Ion/Li-Polymer cell.
Key specifications include programmable charge current up to 1 A set by an external resistor, input over-voltage protection up to 6 V, low input quiescent current of approximately 28 uA, automatic USB 100 mA / 500 mA / 1 A current-limit selection via the SEL pin, integrated 4.2 V (AAI suffix) charge voltage regulation with 0.5% accuracy, and built-in thermal regulation that reduces charge current as junction temperature rises. The device also provides an open-drain STAT output, an active-low PG power-good indicator, and a TIMER pin for programmable charge-time safety termination.
Technically, the MCP73871 combines a precision bandgap reference, a current-sense amplifier, and a pass element with a charge-control state machine that follows the CC/CV profile with trickle preconditioning for deeply discharged cells. The SEL pin toggles between USB-host (100 mA), USB-client (500 mA), and AC-wall-adapter (1 A) current-limit modes, ensuring USB-spec compliance. Internal thermal regulation folds back charge current when die temperature exceeds approximately 115 C, eliminating the need for external thermal management in typical handheld designs.
Typical applications include single-cell Li-Ion/Li-Polymer charging in portable media players, Bluetooth headsets, wearable fitness devices, handheld data terminals, USB-powered medical accessories, and any battery-backed system where the load must continue to operate during charge cycles.
When designing with this part, place input and output capacitors close to the IC, choose the charge-current sense resistor so the desired IREG (typically 1 A) is set by VPROG, and verify thermal dissipation with a continuous VIN-VBAT drop, because linear regulation dissipates (VIN-VBAT) x IBAT as heat.

Типичное применение
MCP73871-2AAI/ML подходит для 6 применениеs: Portable Bluetooth Audio Headset, Wearable Fitness Tracker, Handheld Industrial Data Terminal, USB-Powered Medical Accessory, Wireless IoT Sensor Node, USB Power Bank with Pass-Through Charging.
Portable Bluetooth Audio Headset
The MCP73871-2AAI/ML is well suited for charging the single-cell Li-Polymer battery inside a Bluetooth headset. Its 1 A programmable charge current refills a typical 80-150 mAh cell in well under an hour when the user plugs a USB-C cable into a 5 V wall adapter, while the SEL pin auto-limits input current to 500 mA in USB-client mode so the headset can be safely charged from a laptop or car charger. The device's 28 uA quiescent current extends shelf life, and the exposed thermal pad keeps the QFN-20 cool even when the headset is sealed in a small plastic enclosure with limited airflow.

Wearable Fitness Tracker
Wearables such as fitness bands and smartwatches benefit from the MCP73871-2AAI/ML's combination of 1 A fast-charge, USB-spec compliant input current limiting, and tiny 4x4 mm QFN footprint. The system load sharing means the OLED screen, heart-rate sensor, and BLE radio can stay powered while the battery is empty or removed, eliminating the brown-out that simpler chargers cause during hot-swap. The internal thermal regulation prevents skin-contact temperature rise when charging on a wrist, which would otherwise force the user to remove the device to avoid burns.
Рекомендуется
Handheld Industrial Data Terminal
Industrial barcode scanners and rugged handheld terminals often run from a single Li-Ion cell and need to charge from a 12-24 V cradle as well as a USB port. The MCP73871-2AAI/ML's 6 V absolute-maximum input, combined with the SEL pin's 1 A AC-adapter mode, lets the terminal accept either source without an extra DC-DC converter upstream. Its -40 C to +85 C operating range covers cold-storage warehouses and outdoor construction sites, and the open-drain STAT output drives an LED or GPIO to confirm charge state to the operator.

USB-Powered Medical Accessory
Battery-backed medical accessories such as portable pulse-oximeters, digital thermometers, and Bluetooth stethoscopes rely on the MCP73871-2AAI/ML for safe single-cell Li-Ion charging over USB. Its built-in thermal regulation, safety timer via the TIMER pin, and battery-temperature monitoring via THERM meet the IEC 60601-1 expectations for fault-tolerant charging in patient-adjacent equipment. The 0.5% charge-voltage accuracy preserves cell cycle life across thousands of charge cycles typical in clinical workflows.
Рекомендуется
Wireless IoT Sensor Node
Battery-powered wireless sensor nodes for smart-building automation benefit from the MCP73871-2AAI/ML's load sharing so the radio, MCU, and sensor stay alive across a USB firmware-upgrade session while the Li-Ion cell is being topped up. Its 28 uA quiescent current draws negligibly from the cell when the node is unplugged, and the SEL pin's USB-host (100 mA) mode is essential for nodes powered from low-current USB ports on embedded hosts. The exposed thermal pad allows the device to fit inside IP65 sealed enclosures used for outdoor deployments.
Рекомендуется
USB Power Bank with Pass-Through Charging
Compact USB power banks use the MCP73871-2AAI/ML as the input-side charger for their internal Li-Ion or Li-Polymer cell. The SEL pin distinguishes between a low-current USB host (100 mA), a USB wall adapter (500 mA), and a high-current AC adapter (1 A), allowing the device to negotiate the optimal charge rate from any source. Combined with a downstream boost converter, the load-sharing function keeps the USB-A output port active even when the cell is empty, making true pass-through operation possible for travel use.

Заметки по проектированию
Estimated: at 1 A charge current with a 5 V USB input and a 3.7 V battery, the linear pass element dissipates PD ≈ (5 - 3.7) x 1.0 = 1.3 W. The QFN-20 exposed pad must be soldered to at least 1 square inch of ground copper pour on the top and inner PCB layers to keep the junction within the 115 C thermal-regulation threshold; otherwise the charger will fold back charge current and slow charging. Avoid placing thermal-sensitive components (LCD, thermistor) immediately under the IC.
Select the PROG resistor as RPROG = 1000 / IREG. For a 1 A fast-charge current use RPROG = 1.00 kohm (1% metal-film). Place the PROG resistor directly at the IC pin with the ground end returned to the device's GND pin (not the system ground plane) to preserve current-programming accuracy. Decouple VBAT with at least 4.7 uF X5R ceramic and VIN with at least 4.7 uF X5R ceramic placed within 5 mm of their respective pins to suppress input ripple and prevent charge-termination glitches.
Do not exceed the 6 V absolute-maximum input rating on VIN - a typical 5 V USB port with a transient-laden plug can briefly exceed 6 V and trigger the input over-voltage lockout. Always populate the TIMER capacitor (CTIM) when safety-timer termination is required; leaving TIMER floating may cause the charger to never terminate. The STAT pin is open-drain and requires an external pull-up resistor (typically 100 kohm to VCC) for logic-level output to a host MCU.
