MAX20800 Datasheet Mpp Tracking DC-dc Converter

Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices)

Overview: MAX20800 MPP Tracking DC-DC Converter General.

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.
