In many applications, we will use lithium batteries as our power solutions. In this kind of application, the most two important things are the power boost and battery charger. These two points are a prerequisite for the system. The traditional power boost and battery charge circuit are usually divided into two separate parts, the circuit will be relatively cumbersome to build.

The Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP2636 is highly-integrated, flexible switch-mode battery charger with system power path management, designed for single-cell Liion or Li-Polymer batteries used in a wide range of portable applications. It is really simple to use, once you plug a lipo battery, it will work like a power bank. When there is an external power supply from VIN, it will charge the battery automatically, and the CHG led will light up; when there is no external power, only battery on battery port, the Boost will be ON.

    MP2636 Power Booster & Charger Module x1

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

LED
A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
LiPo
A lithium polymer rechargeable battery commonly used in portable electronics projects. It matters because LiPo batteries need correct charging circuitry and care, and this board includes hardware intended for that battery type.
overcharge protection
A battery safety feature that stops charging when the cells reach their safe maximum voltage. This matters for solar kits because batteries may be connected to a charger for long periods in changing sunlight.
Power path
A power path is the route electricity takes from one or more supplies to the circuit being powered. Understanding the power path helps you choose parts that can safely handle source selection, backup power, and supply switching.
