MAX20800 MPP Tracking DC-DC Converter General Description The MAX20800 family of Cell-String Optimizers enables cell-string Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), providing superior photovoltaic (PV) module energy harvest and reliability as compared to both standard panels and those incorporating module level MPPT technologies. Photovoltaic cells can only deliver maximum power under specific electrical conditions that vary significantly with exposed irradiance and temperature. Series connections of PV cells creates a significant sensitivity to cell mismatch, resulting in less than optimal power and energy production under real-world conditions. The MAX20800 Cell-String Optimizer enables a string of PV cells to deliver their collective maximum power into a wide range of load conditions.
