Abstract | ||||
In this paper, the maximum power point voltage tracker is designed and operated with the DC variable resistive load. The DC-DC converter technique is used for the design. The designed tracker operates as a DC-DC converter down. The designed tracker is a smart type; this is due to the use of programmed microcomputer to control the tracker circuits. The tracker contains three main circuits, sensing, drive and the power circuit. The designed tracker is constructed suitable to use with the photovoltaic power system (PVPS). The tracker is tested in the laboratory under different load levels at fixed insolation level. | ||||
