Solar modules are very special products. Compared to other high-tech products, their design is not excessively complicated, and it is not for nothing that they are commodity products, which are ...
Germany's TÜV Rheinland has developed PV TravelLab, a mobile laboratory to test solar modules. The small, portable lab can be completely dismantled, so it can fit into seven transport cases for easy ...
Even a small array consisting of 100 elements has thousands of individual components that require perhaps 25,000 measurements per module for an eye-watering grand ...
Far-field and radiating near-field are two options for high-volume over-the-air (OTA) testing of antenna-in-package (AiP) modules with automated test equipment (ATE) [1]. In this article, we define an ...
Catastrophic-type glass breakage in PV modules. Image: Valentin, D. et al. 2022, “Failure investigation of a solar tracker due to wind-induced torsional galloping”. In recent years PV modules have ...
Next-generation technologies have shown surprising levels of degradation, requiring careful testing at the cell level. Image: UNSW. Degradation issues identified in new cell technologies such as ...
Testing high power, high brightness light-emitting diode (HBLED) modules is increasingly challenging. One crucial characterization function is the ability to detect which modules are affected by the ...
With each new generation of high-end mobility handheld devices, we get new capabilities. It started with digital cameras and continued with Bluetooth and GPS. Now, FM has become a standard feature.
