Abstract:In this work, it is presented a topology of a DC electronic load for photovoltaic panels using DC-DC converters. The DC electronic load was designed for four operation modes, which are constant voltage, current, power and resistance. Moreover, it uses boost converters and bidirectional buck-boost along with double-loop sliding mode controller (SMC) and PI controllers. The use of the SMC with the DC-DC converters leads to a ripple reduction, as well as to robustness and a reduced sensitivity to variations to ex… Show more
