IV and Lifetime Software
The IV and Lifetime software is developed to control and collect data from the Source Measure Unit systems. It is intended for characterization and lifetime studies of solar cells, measuring IV curves or applying maximum power point tracking (MPPT) under irradiation.
The software automatically extracts the solar cells performance parameters (PCE, Isc, Voc, Fill Factor, MPPV, MMPI, Rsh, Rs).
