current loss
hi.
i've been designing a solar charger/converter composed of three modules.
the first module is for converting solar power to 5V. then this 5V will then be the input for the 2nd module.
attached is the schematic for the first two modules.
my problem is, there is a great current loss from the input of the first module to the battery. an input of 300mA will translate to only 56mA to the battery.
what do you think is the problem?
a colleague said it might be because of impedance mismatch. does someone have a detailed understanding of what this is and would you think this is the cause?
thanks!
