Solutions for Solar Cell and Module Testing

2022-04-22

The explosive growth in the solar industry has intensified the need for solar cell and module test and measurement solutions. Today, solar cell and module test and measurement solutions come in two main forms: complete turnkey solutions and test-system building blocks that must be fitted together and wrapped in software. If you choose a complete turnkey solution, you can get a test system up and running quickly. However, this benefit comes with a high price tag and the very real risk of quick obsolescence in an industry characterized by rapidly developing technologies.
Using building blocks to create a test system costs less and gives you the ability to change your test system as your testing requirements change. For instance, if your test requirements change so you need higher accuracies or a higher current range, you would need only to replace one of the blocks of your test system, rather than your whole system. Also, you can reuse various blocks of your test system across various test system platforms if you are aiming for standardization and equipment reuse.
Keysight Technologies, Inc. offers a wide variety of power, measurement, and switching products you can use as building blocks for characterizing the electrical properties of solar cells and modules. This application note focuses on instruments that decrease test costs without sacrificing performance and increase test flexibility to handle a rapidly changing testing environment. The information in this document will help you choose the optimal solution for your solar cell and module testing challenges.
