Chapter 2, Problem 30E
The current–voltage characteristic of a silicon solar cell exposed to direct sunlight at noon in Florida during midsummer is given in Fig. 2.34. It is obtained by placing different-sized resistors across the two terminals of the device and measuring the resulting currents and voltages. (a) What is the value of the short-circuit current? (b) What is the value of the voltage at open circuit? (c) Estimate the maximum power that can be obtained from the device.
