Abstract :
This paper present the study effect and improved Maximum Power Point (MPP) of Photovoltaic Cells (PV Cells) with DC-DC Converter. In the study addition with capacitor output of PV Cells and implementation compared with maximum power point of DC-DC Converter operation Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) and Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM). Experimental result show that the maximum power point is increase 36 % while connect with capacitor output of PV Cells. And from result show that the maximum power point is reduced 3 % while DC-DC Converter operated in continuous conduction mode compare with the discontinuous conduction mode.
