  • Abstract
    The most important and accessible methods to determine the series resistance Rs and the ideality factor of the diode, m, for the solar cell are presented in this paper. The values of the two parameters obtained for a monocrystalline silicon solar cell with an area of 9cm2 are also presented comparatively. The measurements were realized using the NI ELVIS platform and the Solar Lab board, developed by the authors.
