Figure 23. Feedback Network
In the circuit shown in Figure 23, for the LM234 temperature sensor,

For example, given a common 18-cell solar panel that has the following specified characteristics:
Open circuit voltage (V
OC
) = 10.3V
Maximum power voltage (V
MP
) = 9V
Open-circuit voltage temperature coefficient (V
OC
) = –38mV/°C
Appling the following parameters into the equations of R

:
1. Temperature coefficient for V
MP
(same as that of V
OC
) of –38mV/°C
2. Peak power voltage of 9V
3. MPPSET regulation voltage of 1.2V
