platform for solar development. The kit

features a built-in PV emulator, photo diode

for light sensing, DC/DC boost converter

for MPPT, DC/DC SEPIC converter for

battery charging, and a full-bridge, grid-

tie-capable, DC/AC inverter stage. Two

versions of the kit are offered, allowing

users to experiment with various control-

lers, a Piccolo

TMS320F28035 MCU or an

F28M35H52C MCU. Ethernet connectivity

for remote control and monitoring is avail-

able when using the F28M35H52C MCU

version of the kit. Additionally, an online

training workshop based around this kit

is offered for free. Visit the C2000 Ap-

plications tab at

see the Solar Power Training and Videos

section.
