Microcontroller Based MPPT Buck-Boost Converter
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 6
Abstract
The demand of solar energy has increased rapidly in this decade. This is due to the advantages of the energy compared to other form of sources. The solar energy conversion system is very interesting alternative on supplement the electric system generation, due to the persistent cost reduction of the overall system and cleaner power generation. To obtain a stable voltage from an input supply (PV cells) that is higher and lower than the output, a high efficiency and minimum ripple DC-DC converter required in the system for residential power. Buck-boost converters make it possible to efficiently convert a DC voltage to either a lower or higher voltage. Buck-boost converters are especially useful for PV maximum power tracking purposes, where the objective is to draw maximum possible power from solar panels at all times, regardless of the load.
