Voltage regulator for solar panel
wa4whl:
I'm rebuilding a regulator board for a solar panel array and unable to identify a regulator chip by the markings. The device is 8-pin surface mount with the markings SAQ 7BK A9S4. So far I've tried every combination and nothing. Any idea what this is?
nsrmagazin:
If you post a few pictures that will be very helpful for us. Is replacing the regulator circuit an option? its most likely a voltage and current regulator
Doctorandus_P:
What is the size (power / voltage / current) rating of your solar panel?
MPPT charge controllers start from < EUR 10 from Ali / Ebay / China.
For devices like that it is hardly worth rebuilding.

I would recommend this one in particular:
www.cfcbazar.com/products/oem-lcd-display-20a-mppt-12v-24v-solar-panel-battery-regulator-charge-controller-without-any-logo-on-surface-t20-lcd-wholesales/
Its with high quality.

Be careful, many solar charge controllers labeled "MPPT" are actually PWM. A 20A, 24V DC-DC converter involves a certain amount of cost and heat (ie, heat sinks).
