MPPT IC for Solar PV System

Description

GW4235 is a microlight collection management charging chip that integrates power management, charge/discharge management, and energy storage device management. The GW4235 can achieve cold start with energy input as low as 400mV and 15μW of power, and after startup, it can obtain DC power from light conversion devices such as solar panels, charge energy storage devices such as rechargeable batteries or supercapacitors, and provide stable operating voltage for different loads through two LDO regulators.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial Monitoring
  • Home Automation
  • Electronic Health Monitoring
  • Industrial Internet of Things
  • Wireless Sensor Nodes
