STMicroelectronics SPV1001 Cool Bypass
Switch for Photovoltaic Applications
The
STMicroelectronics SPV1001 Cool Bypass Switch
is a system-in-package solution for
photovoltaic
applications to perform cool bypass rectification similar to that of a conventional Schottky diode but with much lower forward voltage drop and reverse leakage current. This
STMicroelectronics analog solar power switch
consists of a power MOSFET transistor that charges a capacitor during the OFF time and drives its gate during the ON time using the charge previously stored in the capacitor. The ON and OFF times are set to reduce the average voltage drop across the drain and source terminals, resulting in reduced power dissipation. The
STMicroelectronics SPV1001 Cool Bypass Switch
is designed for use in
photovoltaic
panels.
