Implementasi Photovoltaic Generator (PVG) Berbasis Current Limiter dan Arduino sebagai Microcontroler untuk Kinerja Pompa DC

Abstract

Current limiter is an electronic circuit that aims to limit the current that can be used to maintain the amount of current that can be passed by a circuit that goes to the load. In conjunction with solar panels as an energy source, the current limiter limits the amount of current that has been determined according to load requirements and when there is a large current that exceeds the specified current limit, the current limiter system directs the current to the battery storage media. In the use to load section, it also uses ragkaain summing current by controlling the amount of current used by DC loads with the sum of the amount of current obtained from solar panels and the amount of current taken from the battery with the aim of dc loads as electronic devices remain on constantly and stably with fluctuating solar intensity conditions and currents that match fluctuations in solar intensity. In this case, the implementation of PVG in its use to electronic devices can take place without the device experiencing overheating when the current is excessive and electronic devices do not experience the off phase when the current supply from solar panels is less due to the back up energy from the battery.
