What are the components required to build an MPPT charge controller to charge a 12v Battery?
I know i might need some DC-DC conversion but i am not sure which?

An MPPT charger is a non-trivial design. The idea is that you sample the input voltage and current several times a second, and continuously adjust the operating point to get maximum power transfer from the panel. This would mean that you charge...

I've decided to turn my 1972 Ford Champion RV into a Green machine. It will be a series of projects, but I guess you've got to start someplace. I've purchase 2 20w 24v solar panels, and I want to connect them to my RV. There initial job will be to
MPPT is a waste at those power levels. Generally, you will only benefit from power tracking when the array is 500w or more.
In fact, at 40w total, you might be able to get away with no charge controller - you'll be putting less than 2

NXP demonstrates groundbreaking solar street lighting solution at CES 2012
The key to the breakthrough lies in the combination of new High Brightness LEDs and unique patented optics from Philips Lighting, together with NXP’s MPT61x range of configurable ICs for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), which can deliver 98% power conversion efficiency in solar photovoltaic (PV) cells.
Philips’ High Brightness LEDs offer a highly energy-efficient solution, which is superior to any conventional lighting and allows street lamps to be spaced up to 50 meters apart -- much wider than is possible with other solutions. This makes Solar Gen2 the most cost-effective solution per km of road lighting and provides a serious alternative to grid-connected AC systems.
Association Forum - Solar Charge Controllers MPPT vs 3 stage
My boat will most likely be on a mooring this season so solar power looks to be my best bet. Has anyone had experience using the MPPT style controller versus standard 3 stage controller? It is my understanding that the MPPT can trade volts for amps and vice-a-versa when the panel is generating more or less than 14.4 volts to charge a 12V. Has anyone used these and do you feel the efficiency gained is worth the more expensive price tag of the MPPT controller? I'd rather have a smaller "footprint" on my panel and boost it's efficiency wherever possible. quote: The MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) charge controller is the shining star of today's PV systems. These controllers actually detect the...
