Renesas Electronics Solar Panel Tracker & Cleaning System
Renesas Electronics Solar Panel Tracker and Cleaning System is designed to deliver an efficient power harvesting solution using solar panels. Following the sun's position, the tracker system moves the panel to collect maximum solar light using a solar irradiation sensor. The cleaning system guarantees a clean surface of the solar panel with the help of a wiper and water sprinkler. The system implements an MCU to drive the tracking and wiper motors and operate the water pump solenoid valve. Wi-Fi®+BLUETOOTH® LE and LTE modules add cloud connectivity features and remote operation.
Features
- Low maintenance as BLDC motors are used
- RA2E1, 48MHz Arm® Cortex®-M23 provides PWM signals, operates the switch, and senses the irradiation, thus, two mechanisms can be performed with one controller serving as a cost-effective solution
- Ultra-low power Wi-Fi+BLE module used for cloud connectivity and smart home
- For a longer range, an LTE Cat M1 module for cellular connectivity is used
