The Measurement and SPICE Modelling of Schottky Barrier Diodes Appropriate for Use as Bypass Diodes within Photovoltaic Modules

The modelling of surges within PV (photovoltaic) installations has been the subject of much research in recent years. However, accurate simulations cannot be performed unless each and every component within a PV installation is modelled in sufficient detail. The bypass diodes within a PV module are...
