TI TMS320C2000™ DSP Controllers: A Perfect Fit for Solar Power Inverters The solar inverter is a critical component in a solar energy system. It performs the conversion of the variable DC output of the Photovoltaic (PV) module(s) into a clean sinusoidal 50- or 60 Hz AC current that is then applied directly to the commercial electrical grid or to a local, off-grid electrical network. Typically, communications capability is included so users can monitor the inverter and report on power and operating conditions, provide firmware updates and control the inverter grid

Join the lighting revolution with NXP - smaller, more reliable, longer lifetime, high efficiency solutions Incandescent bulbs have been the lighting workhorse for over 100 years. But they are now being phased out across the globe as everyone looks for more efficient lighting options - driven largely by concerns over climate change and energy resources. However, these options require more complicated driver and control electronics.
