Solar Charge Controller with Bluetooth and USB Interface ECE342-Sp20
Solar Panel
Sustainability
A solar charge controller regulates the voltage from a solar panel to ensure that the panel is outputting at the max power point. Our project uses an MPPT algorithm and outputs data both through a screen and to a connected app.
