Battery Management
1

Dear MPS Team,

I am currently evaluating the MP2797DFP-0001-T IC for use in a new Battery Management System (BMS) design.

Before finalizing this component, I would like to clarify a few important points regarding its long-term use and application scope:

  1. Product Lifecycle & Future Availability

    • Is MP2797DFP-0001-T considered a long-term active product?

    • Are there any plans for discontinuation or major revisions in the near future?

    • What is the expected product lifetime and supply commitment?

  2. Supply Chain Stability

    • What is the typical lead time for medium to high volume production?

    • Are there any known risks related to supply constraints?

  3. Automotive Application Suitability

    • Can this IC be used in automotive applications such as electric vehicles or e-bike BMS?

    • Is there any automotive-grade (AEC-Q100 qualified) version available or planned?

    • If not automotive-qualified, are there any limitations or risks we should consider for such use cases?

  4. Technical Support & Design Resources

    • Are there reference designs, application notes, or evaluation boards available for this IC?

    • Is FAE (Field Application Engineer) support available for design validation?

  5. Recommended Alternatives (if applicable)

    • In case MP2797 is not recommended for automotive-grade designs, could you suggest suitable alternatives within your portfolio?

This information will help us make an informed decision for our design, especially considering long-term production and reliability requirements.

Thank you for your support.

Hi,

  1. MP2797DFP-0001-T is active now, and this part will only EOL after no customers have purchased it for two years. In that case, we will be able to provide a pin to pin part for the future support.
  2. The lead time in industry nowadays is not short. Please provide more information for your project and company, we can help you better.
  3. For the question 3/4/5, please fill out the MPS NOW Technical Support form. A member from the MPS NOW team will contact you within 24–36 hours about this request. Contact MPS - Contact. MPS will provide the support from your design to the production. A local FAE will help you.

Best,

Fox
