Sliding-Mode Control of Distributed Maximum Power Point Tracking Converters Featuring Overvoltage Protection

In Photovoltaic (PV) systems with Distributed Maximum Power Point Tracking (DMPPT) architecture each panel is connected to a DC/DC converter, whose outputs are connected in series to feed a grid-connected inverter. The series-connection forces the output voltage of those converters to be proportiona...
