Voltage Doubler For Solar Battery Charger

This is a circuit for PV Solar Panels have typical voltages of 3, 6, 12, 24 Volts. This circuit can be built which will increase the voltage output from a solar panel so it can be used to directly power a device or to charge batteries. This is the figure of the circuit;


It is comprised of some very easy to source components. The key component is the NE555 timer IC - one of the most popular integrated circuits (ICs) of all time. In this circuit it is used to generate short pulses of DC electricity which are passed through a couple of diodes and capacitors which act to multiply the voltage. The maximum output current of a 555 timer is typically 200 mA and it can dissipate up to 600mW of power. Exceed these specifications and the chip may be destroyed. Click here for full typical NE555 Specifications.
