Since first commercialized, the photovoltaic power converter continues to enable a growing number of critical applications requiring 100% galvanic isolation. Since the successful introduction of vertical multijunctions, higher power levels and efficiency have steadily been realized, culminating in the first pigtailed 10 W laser power converter.
