Texas Instruments C2000™ Renewable Energy Developer's Kit
The Texas Instruments C2000™ Renewable Energy Developer's Kit lets designers implement all the major functions of a solar or renewable energy system. The TI Renewable Energy Developer's Kit is designed for quickly evaluating C2000 microcontrollers (MCUs) for power conversion applications at a safe input voltage and power level. This TI C2000 development kit offers all the voltage and current measurement hooks so that designers can create and test new technologies and techniques. The TI Renewable Energy Developer's Kit comes with a solar board that allows for evaluation of various pieces of a solar energy system and takes in a DC input from a panel or any other DC source and offers various power electronics hardware to implement all the functions of a solar energy system.
Texas Instruments Piccolo™ Microcontrollers: TMS320F2802x
The Texas Instruments TMS320F2802x Piccolo™ microcontroller (MCU) family provides the power of the C28x™ core coupled with highly integrated control peripherals in low pin-count devices. The TI Piccolo MCU family is code compatible with previous C28-based code and provides a high level of analog integration. Each TI Piccolo MCU features an internal voltage regulator that allows for single rail operation and enhancements to the HRPWM module to allow for dual-edge control. The TMS320F2802x family also includes analog comparators with internal 10-bit references that can be routed directly to control the PWM outputs.
Texas Instruments Solar Energy Harvesting Development Tool: eZ430-RF2500-SEH
The Texas Instruments eZ430-RF2500-SEH Solar Energy Harvesting Development Tool helps designers create a perpetually powered wireless sensor network based on the ultra-low-power MSP430™ microcontroller (MCU). The eZ430-RF2500-SEH Solar Energy Harvesting kit includes a module with a high efficiency solar panel optimized for operating indoors under low-intensity fluorescent lights that provide enough power to run a wireless sensor application with no additional batteries. This TI development kit also has inputs for external energy harvesters and stores additional energy in a pair of thin-film rechargeable EnerChips. The eZ430-RF2500 is used to run the energy harvesting application and is a complete USB-based MSP430 wireless development tool. The TI kit includes a debugging interface that allows for real-time, in-system debugging and programming for the MSP430 and is also the interface to transfer data to a PC from a wireless system.
