Description:


The LX2400 IDEALSolarTM Bypass Diode with Microsemi’s patented CoolRUNTM technology provides a bypass path in PV module applications with the industry’s lowest forward voltage drop resulting in negligible heat generation and temperature rise during operation for best in class reliability and robustness. A scalable architecture provides future-proofing for next generation PV modules operating at higher than 10A currents. Incorporating a unique and patented architecture, the LX2400 does not require a hiccup or replenishment cycle.
Developed with Microsemi’s 40 Year – High Reliability Design Methodology, the LX2400’s typical forward voltage drop of 50mV at 10A generates a negligible 10°C temperature rise for the coolest operating solar bypass solution available on the market. In addition, the device is fully functional from -65°C to +165°C and extreme operating environment survivability is enhanced with bi-direction lightning protection support up to 1.4 Joules significantly exceeding existing market solutions.
