To preface my questions, here is my understanding of a charge controller. You have a battery pack and some kind of ac power source and basically, the charge controller will either connect the ac power source or the charge controller to the load based upon which source is providing more power.
As of now those are my questions, but I will have more depending on the answers to the above questions.
Thank you for your time and help
If you are using a solar panel as an input, I would look at the bq24650.
The main feature needed for solar panels is Maxium Power Point Tracking. This loads the solar cell down to the programmed threshold where the maximum power output of the solar panel occurs and regulates there.
The Maximum Power Point Tracking actually isn't an issue, as we have designed our own. Also the other issue with the three chips under energy harvesting & solar charging is that we need packages with leads.
