Abstract

Organic solar PV (OPV) cells are gaining attention due to their light weight, flexibility and low cost. Charging of smart phones using OPV modules is a prime application area. However, the chargers developed using organic PV modules are bulky as they require carrying long rolls of PV arrays. This paper proposes an integrated charger for smart phones, which includes an OPV module and a charging circuit with an op-amp based precision diode. The proposed charger uses an OPV module of size equal to that of the smart phone display. The proposed design reduces the size and weight of charger significantly. The experimental results of OPV module characterization, battery characteristics, blocking diode performance, and increase in state of charge (SOC) of the smart phone using proposed charger are presented.
