Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

This caught my eye.

Design for Solar panels but I'm sure there will be other uses.

Yeah, it does. I was surprised at the duty cycle. Something around 99%?

Very nice.
Was thinking while reading the notes that there must be a FET or something that is triggered to allow such a low loss, and there it is in the datasheet.
So its like a diode in effect but 'smart', brilliant.
