Design of Photovoltaic Energy Harvester with Energy Buffer Stage and Maximum Power Point Tracking Circuit

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

A boost dc-dc converter for photovoltaic (PV) energy harvesting is proposed and fabricated by TSMC 0.18μm 1P6M mixed-signal standard CMOS process. A perturb and observe (PO) method is used to track the maximum power point of the PV cell. A new control method combining time-multiplexing control (TMC) and power-distributive control (PDC) is used to control single-inductor dual-input dual output (SIDIDO) system,properly distributing energy among harvester,energy buffer and output. With the assistance of the energy buffer stage,the maximum load power of the proposed converter can reach 6.9mW.
