摘要
A multi-junction solar module apparatus. The apparatus has a substrate member. The apparatus has a plurality of first photovoltaic devices arranged in a first spatial configuration, which is preferably disposed on a first planar region. In a specific embodiment, the plurality of first photovoltaic devices are numbered from 1 through N, where N is an integer greater than 1. Each of the plurality of first solar cells has a first bandgap characteristic. The apparatus has a plurality of second photovoltaic devices arranged in a second spatial configuration, which is preferably disposed in a second planar region. The plurality of second photovoltaic devices are numbered from 1 through M, where M is an integer greater than 1. In a preferred embodiment, N is not equal to M. Each of the second solar cells has a second band gap characteristic. In a specific embodiment, a first connector interconnects the plurality of first solar cells in a serial configuration. The first connector has a first terminal end and a second terminal end. A second connector interconnects the plurality of second solar cells in a serial configuration. The second connector has a first terminal end and a second terminal end. In a specific embodiment, a third connector connecting the second terminal end of the first connector and the first terminal end of the second connector. In a specific embodiment, a Vss node is coupled to the first terminal end of the first connector. In a specific embodiment, a Vdd node is coupled to the second terminal end of the second connector. In a preferred embodiment, N and M are selected to match a first current through the plurality of first solar cells and a second current through the plurality of second solar cells.
