Nowadays the most advance solar charge controller available in the market is maximum power point tracking mppt.
Solar panel charge controller circuit design.
Mppt solar charge controller block diagram please contact innovatech switching power india to purchase samples of this reference design board.
You will need just a solar panel panel a selector switch and some diodes for getting a reasonably effective solar charger set up.
18 to 20v output voltage range.
You can also use other arduino board like pro mini micro and uno.
It s an automatic switching circuit that used to control the charging of a battery from solar panels or any other source.
The second design explains a cheap yet effective less than 1 cheap yet effective solar charger circuit which can be built even by a layman for harnessing efficient solar battery charging.
This design is suitable for a 50w solar panel to charge a commonly used 12v lead acid battery.
It s a 555 based simple circui.
50w 4a 12v nominal open circuit voltage.
