Register today to have an Avnet representative contact you to schedule this On-Ramp Technical Session.

Microchip has created a solution that allows a product to get the maximum power out of a solar panel to power a remote application. The Maximum Power Point Converter (MPPC) is essentially a DC-to-DC converter. The DC input voltage is the solar panel, the output voltage is a DC voltage, and it can either run the application or recharge a battery. The Avnet Memec FAE team has been trained to educate customers on this solution. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how Microchip’s MPPC can help maximize the use of solar energy in your next design.
Agenda

• Overview of solar power design considerations
