Solar panels are devices that convert light into electricity. They are called “solar” panels because most of the time, the most powerful source of light available is the Sun, called Sol by astronomers. Some scientists call them photovoltaics which means, basically, “light-electricity.”
Solar Cell Products
Our Solar Cell is a revolutionary new product offering that addresses the diverse needs and applications of the growing low power solar energy market. This technology development is based on our strength in photovoltaic silicon processing and IC packaging. The Solar Cell product family offers open circuit voltage levels of 4V and 8V when activated by natural or artificial light. These voltage levels correlate to common circuit board power supply voltages making the solar cell ideal for battery charging applications and trickle charge power sources.
Our flexible Solar Cell architecture facilitates product family growth by means of it’s scalable technology thus paving the way for future solar cell offerings with different voltage and current ratings. Additionally, since there is excellent isolation between the various circuit elements on the Solar Cell’s photovoltaic die, it is possible to add options such as power management or logic control circuitry with minimal incremental cost to the product.
