Mini Solar Modules: Details and Application Examples

Miniature constructionDesigned within millimeter-level constraints

Cell cutting, interconnection, edge margin, encapsulation and termination define what is feasible at very small sizes.

Low-power devicesEnergy harvesting for embedded electronics

Sleep current, active duty cycle, indoor or outdoor light and available area must be included in the energy budget.

Product overview

Mini Solar Modules for OEM Product Development

Mini solar modules support low-power products where every millimeter of active area matters. We match the cell technology, voltage, current, encapsulation and termination to the device energy budget and real lighting conditions.

Mini solar modules integrated into smart tags, environmental sensors and low-power tracking electronics — Sleep current, active duty cycle, indoor or outdoor light and available area must be included in the energy budget.
