I–V Measurement System for Solar Simulator
Abstract
This paper deals with “I–V Measurement system for solar simulator”. In this paper, device developed is capable of handling solar cell model of open voltage from 6 to 60 V with the short circuit current upto 10 A. For the linear I–V characteristics measurement a linear current source from 0 to 2 A is resemble with a BJT amplifier and the measurement time for the current is 1 ms. In this research a noninductive 1 Ohm 2 W load resistor is used which forms voltage proportional at the current rate of 2 kA/s. Results of the measurement are presented in this paper.
