Measuring Solar Radiation based on Photovoltaic Cells
#72

Hi,

0.3 ohm is certainly low enough to emulate a "short circuit" load for the PV panel. But it will give only 30 mV which will be useless if using a 5 volt (or even 3.3 v) ADC reference voltage. Werk uses a 1.1 volt reference even with an Op-Amp gain of around 7 - 10.

With a signal as low as 30 mV fsd (full scale) you may even have issues with the "input offset voltage" of a typical Op-Amp, producing a suppressed (or raised) zero level.

Generally, you can't calibrate using theoretical or data sheet values, because you would need to know (accurately) the conversion efficiency of the PV panel (at the precise operating conditions) and the gain of the Op-Amp, etc..

Cheers, Alan.
