Fast I-V Curve Changes
The E4360 offers fast curve changes
to enable better simulation of solar
arrays under various environmental
conditions, like eclipse and spin.
The resolution of the I-V curve can
be set to optimize the I-V curve for
resolution or fast curve change. In
simulation mode and table mode,
you can select high resolution which
uses a 4,096 point table to generate a
smoother I-V curve within 250 msec.
For fast I-V curve generation, you
can select the 256 point table that
quickly generates an I-V curve within
30 msec. All the E4360 SAS in the
system can be synchronized to change
their I-V curves at the same time
using the hardware trigger, such
that I-V curves can be changed on
up to 100 outputs within 30 msec
or 250 msec based on resolution
setting.
I-V Curve List
The E4360 offers a LIST mode that
lets you pre-program a LIST of up
to 512 I-V curves. Program up to
512 sets of points, where each set
of points include curve parameters:
V
oc,
V
mp,
I
sc,
and I
mp
. A dwell time
of 30 ms to 65 seconds with 1 ms
resolution can be specified and the
E4360 SAS will stay (i.e. dwell) at
the set point for the programmed
dwell time value. Alternately, the
LIST can be paced (advanced to the
next set point) by a bus trigger or
it can be paced by a trigger signal
which enables synchronization of
the LIST with an external event.
Utilizing I-V curve lists speed up
test execution by removing the
computer I/O from the process
and simplifies I-V curve change
more easily simulating the solar
array under various conditions.
