Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ2031

Hello I am new in solar development. I want to develop power supply using  solar panel with specs

Maximum power: 70Wp + / - 3%
Open circuit voltage: 22,50 V
Short circuit current: 4,40 A
I need constant 12V at output.  Any body can suggest me the reference design with MPPT or DC-DC converter. Thanks.

    Hello Vishal,
    Thank you for using our Forum.

    TI has many reference designs that involve solar applications.
    This TI DESIGNS landing page will provide many to search from.
    www.ti.com/.../refdesignsearchresults.tsp

    Using " MPPT " as a keyword search produces many results.

    Perhaps this one will help?

    This application note provides some ideas on implementing MPPT.

    MPPT requires limiting load current on the solar panel to prevent its voltage from dropping.
