The charging circuits are based on the Texas Instruments‘ BQ24450， a linear-designed regulator which monitors the battery voltage with a voltage divider circuit. In conjuncTIon with the charging IC， some addiTIons to the solar charging circuit （Figure 2） have been made， including the Zetex ZXCT1010 to measure the current through a sense resistor， and a series of resistors arranged in a voltage divider configuraTIon. These two modifications allow the controller to measure the input voltage and current from the solar panels. Secondly， five IPS6031 high side switches from International Rectifier were added to allow the controller to connect or disconnect various inputs in and out of the circuit for a couple of different reasons. The first reason is to control the solar inputs individually in order to get maximum solar power， and the second reason is to allow testing of each solar panel individually for maximum life and performance. Lastly， five Ultra capacitors from NESSCAP were added to the input of the circuit to allow intermittent solar inputs to have a minimal effect on the charging of the battery.
