圖7. bq25504 EVM評估板PCB布局圖 TI 太陽能能量采集總體解決方案 傳統逆變器解決方案 Central, or “traditional”, inverters are centralized power control units that convert DC power from a string of 72-cell solar panels to AC power for use on the electrical utility grid. These are usually large scale commercial or residential systems producing in excess of 1 kW of power. Maximum power point tracking for the entire string is done only at the inverter box, which may also include relays to “island” the solar system from the grid.
圖8.. 傳統逆變器解決方案框圖 微逆變器解決方案 Micro-inverters operate similarly to central inverter systems, but are installed on each individual panel and handle much less power, typically 300 W. Micro-inverters provide the benefit of scalability for those who want to start small, yet have full DC/AC conversion with MPPT, and expand later.
圖9.微逆變器解決方案框圖(1) Micro-converters maximize the DC power point of a single solar panel and convert (down or up) the DC voltage to be transported downstream to a centralized AC (grid-tied) inverter. Being located on each panel, these systems are lower power (typ. 300 W) than centralized converters. These are sometimes called “optimizers” because they optimize the power of each panel, increasing the overall efficiency of the system. ➔
圖10.微逆變器解決方案框圖(2) 3.電池充電解決方案 Off-grid solar power systems often need to charge a battery, or array of battery cells, that provide continuous power to the load when solar energy is no longer present. Often cost sensitive, in order to optimize the size, cost and usable power of the storage elements, off-grid systems also require that the power point be maximized. However, this can be done by employing, lower power and less complex MCUs than grid-tied systems or by employing a simple fixed power point – often set at 76% of VOC. Loads such as LED lighting and motors may require additional power boosting and/or control.
