Small 8-Pin Surface Mount SOIC

The CPC1822 is a monolithic photovoltaic string of

solar cells with switching circuitry. When operating

in sunlight or a bright artificial light environment the

optical energy will activate the cell array and generate

a voltage at the output. The solar cells are capable

of generating a floating source voltage and current

sufficient to drive and power CMOS IC’s, logic gates

and/or provide “trickle charge” for battery applications.
