IXOLAR
TM
High Efficiency SolarMD.
Description
IXOLAR
TM
SolarMD is an IXYS product line of Solar Module made of monocrystalline, high efficiency solar
cells. The IXOLAR
TM
SolarMD is an ideal for charging various battery powered and handheld consumer
products such as mobile phones, cameras, PDAs, MP3-Players and toys. They are also suitable for
industrial applications such as wireless sensors, portable instrumentation and for charging emergency
backup batteries.
With a cell efficiency of typically 22%, SolarMD gives the ability to extend run time even in "low light"
conditions and increase battery life and run time in a small footprint, which can be easily accommodated in
the design of portable products. The design allows connecting SolarMD flexibly in series and/or parallel to
perfectly meet the custom-specific application’s power requirements.
IXOLAR
TM
products have a very good photonic response over a wide range of wavelength and therefore
can be used in both indoor and outdoor applications.
