8 Solar Cell LED Light - I have been modifying a lot of solar garden and path lights for the last several years. I buy some units from home improvement stores, then I gut them completely. I take out the battery, electronic control board, LED and solar panel. I then replace those components with new units. I increase the size of the solar panel and battery. I use a more efficient and brighter LED . . . Circuit by David Johnson P.E.-September 22, 2017
8-Solar Cell Lithium Ion Battery Charger Version 2 - Jim Wilber looked at my design for a battery charger and sent me some suggested changes. He suggested using the LTC4412 ideal diode IC to switch off the current path from the solar cell to the battery in darkness. He also noted that the 2.5v regulator from Seiko I had selected was no longer in production and suggested using the shunt reference . . . Circuit by David A. Johnson P.E.-May 21, 2013
AdvancedTCA with High-Side & Low-Side Ideal Diode-OR & Hot Swap Controller with I2C Current & Voltage Monitor - The LTC4355 is a positive voltage ideal diode-OR controller that drives two external N-channel MOSFETs. Forming the diode-OR with N-channel MOSFETs instead of Schottky diodes reduces power consumption, heat dissipation and PC board area. __ Linear Technology/Analog Devices App Note, Mar 26th 2010
