This must be the most efficient bipolar transistor motor driver design for this application and I recommend it for the solar roller competitions. A 1381E is used to trigger at 2.4V. While it takes a total of 10 components plus motor compared to the stock circuit`s 6 components, you will clearly get better performance compared to a stock Solar Roller/Speeder circuit.There are no losses during charging and the output transistor has a guaranteed low voltage drop under all motor load conditions while the normally wasted base current is absolutely minimized. To demonstrate the difference in wasted base current, measure t visit page.

This Circuit will allow for Voltage Regulation and Isolation when Charging Lead Acid Batteries with a Solar Cell.



Solar Garden LED Lighting

The circuit consists of two stages. The first stage is a "switch" or cut-off device. It detects a voltage above 0.7v from the solar panel and the resistance between its collector-emitter terminals reduces to a very small value. The 10k resistor allows the voltage on the solar panel to rise...



Solar Engine

Well the most common use is in a solaroller which is a small wheeled car that charges up and then moves in a quick burst of speed. Since you can only use motors and coils with this circuit robots built with this circuit are mainly mechanical such as my artistic butterflies. One other common use...



Solar voltage regulator

The circuit presented here uses linear shunt regulation. Simply spoken, it burns off all excess energy from the panel, keeping output voltage constant. At times when the solar panel output is equal or greater than the load, and the battery is fully charged, the load gets its power from the panel,...

Solarbotics` stepper motor drive circuit

You can, though, use this circuit to drive any bipolar or unipolar (via bipolar drive) stepper motor. In the Solarbotics diagram, the Yellow and Blue leads are the end contacts of one motor winding, and the Red and White leads are the end contacts of the other motor winding. In the case of...



PIC16F84 Solar Charger

The previous version of this device used pulse width modulation (pwm) to control the power from the five solar panels to charge the battery bank. Under full sun conditions the MOSFETS got a bit warm and the whole unit radiated a lot of RFI. This design uses a set of relays - one for each panel....



5v Regulated Solar Power Supply Circuit

This project uses the 1.2v rechargeable battery and solar panel from a Solar Garden Light. These lights can be bought for less than $5.00 in most $2.00 shops or similar shops that sell general household items. We are also using the housing for this project as we could not buy the case, battery...
