Abstract: A high efficiency solar power system combining photovoltaic sources of power (1) can be converted by a base phase DC-DC photovoltaic converter (6) and an altered phase DC-DC photovoltaic converter (8) that have outputs combined through low energy storage combiner circuitry (9). The converters can be synchronously controlled through a synchronous phase control (11) that synchronously operates switches to provide a conversion combined photovoltaic DC output (10). Converters can be provided for individual source conversion or phased operational modes, the latter presenting a combined low photovoltaic energy storage DC-DC photovoltaic converter (15) at string or individual panel levels.

Abstract: An energy harvesting device for powering electronic devices such as wireless sensors and IoT devices is described. The device relies on nature's fundamental forces to convert kinetic energy to electrical energy, acting as power source; while accounting for the Casimir force. Nanotechnology and MEMS are used to fabricate the device embedding a mechanical oscillator, electronic circuitry, energy harvester, and transducer integrated in the same packaging. The device supports mechanism to excite and ignite the oscillatory behavior via RF signal from a remote signal source that synthesizes the RF signal on a fix or mobile platform. Additionally, solar and RF signals may be added constructively to boost the output power of the device. The device scales from micron size to blades and racks formed from arrays of the connected devices to increase the output power of the aggregate system to any desired level for powering home appliances or computer networks.
