30 January ~ 3 February 2012 (Week 3)

Title of Activity:

Project Progress.

ü  Development of Solar Charger Controller Circuit.

Objective:

Design circuit in the project board.

Sketch and design the solar charger controller circuit.

Content/Procedure:

Design the circuit using Multisim simulation application.

Testing the circuit using the project board.

Using the PCB designed, sketched the solar charger circuit.

Result and Analysis:

            As a result, for this week there have showed some progress. The solar charger controller circuit have been designed. Using the project board, the simple circuit have been designed. For the next week progress, maybe the solar panel should be purchased at the market and the circuit will be tested with the solar panel.

There have some problem if the design of solar charger controller circuit is very complex, maybe the electricity generated from the solar panel will be dropped. So to overcome this problems, the simple circuit have been designed for make sure that circuit can produced the electricity nicely.

Conclusions:

            To be concluded, the development of the solar charger circuit will make the project progress completed within the time that has been planned.

            This circuit for the solar charger can be tested when it finished fabricated. And the next step is to put the solar panel and the charged batteries, and then this project can be tested as one part of the whole project progress.
