[0033] In order for those skilled in the art to accurately and clearly understand the technical scheme of the utility model, the technical scheme of the utility model is described in detail by way of example.
[0034] In a photovoltaic power generation system, due to weather conditions, shadow effect and solar panel aging and other factors, the output voltage of the photovoltaic panel may be reduced. When the photovoltaic panel is powered by an MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking, MPPT for short) charger, the auxiliary power supply part therein will be started first to supply 12V voltage for the MPPT charger, and then provide 5V voltage and RTC chip (Real Time Clock Chip) operating voltage (3.3V).
[0035] However, the RTC chip (Real Time Clock Chip) needs to be powered when the auxiliary power supply is started, and when the conditions are insufficient to start the auxiliary power supply, it cannot be powered. However, the RTC chip (Real Time Clock Chip) needs to ensure correct time recording, so it needs continuous power supply. The power supply needs to provide enough power for the chip to work for a long time after the power is cut off. Generally, a button-type lithium battery with a theoretical maintenance time of more than 791 days and a management IC are used, but its working temperature range is generally -20℃-60℃, which cannot meet some more extreme temperature ranges, so it cannot ensure the stability of work in some high-latitude areas. The LIC lithium ion capacitor can maintain for a long time after being fully charged, about 208 days, and its working temperature range is wider, up to -40°C-70°C, which can adapt to related situations, but its cost is relatively high, which cannot meet the demand.
