Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM5050-2
Hi
Assuming that 6 Panel with a maximum open circuit voltage of 39.4 and a maximum currant of 9 A are connected in series (max voltage thus < 240 V) and several of these strings are connected in parallel.
A blocking diode (not a bypass diode) prevents current from flowing into reverse direction from one string into another ( shaded) string, see for an illustration.
Can the SM74611 used for this application ?
Are there other options from TI ?
Kind regards
Peter
