PELACAK INSENSITAS ENERGI MATAHARI MENGGUNAKAN SEL SURYA

The advancement of control technology based on microcontroller able to

exploited in designing a system which is capable to activate solar cell panel

automatically to trace the highest intensity of solar energy, so the solar cell can

always yield optimum voltage.

This research is designing a system which is aplicable to trace the highest

intensity of solar energy as resources of electrical energy, with panel can move

automatically to trace from east to west the highest intensity of solar energy or on

contrary (dynamic), based on input from solar cell

In this system design there are several things must be considered, among

other selection or use of components that build the system, such as member of

solar cell as a sensor module, a system contoroller and a motor. The system

designed use the motor dc as activator of solar cell panel and solar cell

fuctionally as sensor.

The result from designing and testing at this research is proven good

enough as expected, solar cell panel succeed to trace the highest intensity of solar

energy which is equivalent with 1,06V dc (max. on solar cell)
