Abstract :
This paper presents a solar power converter using the series connected buck-boost topology. The efficiency of the power converter is improved compared with single buck or boost converters. The controlling scheme is based on the C8051F330 microcontroller. The microcontroller integrates relevant controlling functions, thus simplifying the control circuit and reducing the cost.
