This is a simple solar boost converter and voltage limiter circuit that charges a 12V battery from a 6V solar panel. It also demonstrates MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) capability. When we think of MPPT, we generally think of microcontrollers and complex power computing algorithms, but such computing power is not actually required.
The basic circuit topology of a boost converter consists of the following key components: Inductor (L): The inductor, which stores and releases energy throughout the switching cycles, is an essential part of the boost converter. Its major job is to preserve energy storage during conversion while controlling current flow.
Boost regulators tend to be finicky and will not operate over a wide range of conditions –if your system uses a different solar panel power rating, expect problems. The only items that need adjustment are the inductance of L1 and the value of C3.
The average of this voltage can be taken as 517.8 V. The current delivered from the panel is 5380 A. The duty ratio related to the maximum power from the solar panel is 0.27 which can regulate nearly a voltage of 703.2 V and current of 3750 A at the converter’s output terminal.
Proposed converter is validated for its performance parameters such as efficiency, ZVS mode of operation, operation of the solar panel under various atmospheric conditions, and the MPPT control algorithm.
The input section serves as the interface between the solar panels and the controller. It typically includes protection circuitry to safeguard against voltage spikes and reverse polarity. The MPPT control unit houses the microcontroller, which is responsible for implementing the MPPT algorithm.
