Solar circuits and projects

Solar circuits - related electronic projects and circuit diagrams (schematics), this helps you finding desired informations and facilitates your site navigation through all articles database.
In every website page you will find a special section (at the beginning or the end) with tags just like this and also different tags associated with the current article.
Tags inter-links stories with the similar content, so if you click on the tag you will find only related and relevant Solar content.



solar-panelSo a battery is charging during daylight from a solar panel and can discharge through solar panels during night. This problem can be prevented with a diode but this has a disadvantage so we use this switch.
This solar panels switch circuit replaces the diode and connects the panel to the battery through a relay contact. This is powered by the panel. When the supply voltage is low, the relay wont act so the battery is not connected to the solar panel. continue reading…

This dc to dc converter raise a dc voltage at almost a double value and is useful for raising the output voltage of solar batteries up to the required level for charging acid or NiCad batteries. It can deliver up to 3Amps. The measurement values with 2A load are shown in the bottom table. continue reading…

This is a great a simple Solar Battery Charger circuit. The most simple power systems with solar panels are composed of 3 parts: a diode, a solar cells system and a rechargeble battery. The diode prevents the battery discharging through the solar cells in the lack of solar light. Although the diode is often a Schottky type, the direct voltage applied on it can produce a high power leakage.
The featured solar battery charger circuit presented here uses a special diode with reduced direct voltage.
