Transient Performance Improvement for Sustainability and Robustness Coverage in Hybrid Battery Management System ASIC Integration for Solar Energy Conversion

Adverse climate events have recently highlighted an increasing need to deploy sustainable energetic infrastructures. The existing electric conversion circuits for solar energy provide high efficiency; however, gaps in sustainability and robustness can be identified by considering their operation during intense perturbations, potentially occurring for interplanetary energy transfer. Additionally, charging characteristics for energy storage units influence differently the operation life of battery arrays, with increased stability providing favorable operating conditions. Therefore, the present study develops an alternative controller for managing solar energy as well as a prototype for tracking the maximum power point, both constrained by robustness and renewability studies. For the presented design, stability analyses and simulations validated the management of electric energy from solar panels and the developed configuration resulted in improving current peak integral transient characteristics by using an alternative control method, demonstrating stability for an indefinite number of energy storage units. Furthermore, the estimation for VLSI (Very-Large-Scale Integration) of this constrained design has been concluded to potentially provide a solution with adequate performance, comparable to state-of-the-art computational circuits. However, certain limitations could arise when substituting the main computation parts with analyzed solutions and proceeding with integration-based manufacturing.
