Question: For a 0 . 0 1 7 m 2 PV cell, the reverse saturation current is I 0 = 4 1 0 1 1 A

For a 0.017 m2 PV cell, the reverse saturation current is I0=41011 A and at an insolation of 1-sun (1 sun =1000 W/m2) the short-circuit current is ISC =6.4 A. Assume the cell temperature is 25C, parallel resistance Rp=5 and series resistance Rs=0.05, draw the I-V plots based on the four equivalent electrical circuits we discussed:
1) the simplest circuit without Rp and Rs
2) the circuit with Rp only
3) the circuit with Rs only
4) the circuit with both Rp and Rs
