Abstract

More sophisticated applications require electronic converters to process the electricity from the PV device. These converters may be used to regulate the voltage and current at the load, control the power flow in grid-connected systems, and mainly track the maximum power point (MPP) of the device. Therefore, this paper tries to study an electronic converter in PV systems, namely the Buck converter, and propose an easy way to electronic converter designers to calculate component values needed to realize it.
