    The document describes the design of a solar energy generator including: 1. It will have a laser cut Delrin front panel mounted in a pelican case covering the electronics and including a display, buttons and encoder. 2. The internal layout includes a LiFePO4 battery, 5V buck module, and main PCB connecting the solar panel input, battery, and load outputs via Souriau connectors. 3. The PCB controls power from the solar panel to charge the battery and provide regulated voltage outputs to loads via relays or direct connection depending on the port used.

    Solar Energy Generator:

    Design Rendering Description

    • Prototype system will be mounted in a pelican case with


    battery and other peripherals.
    • Laser Cut Delrin Panel will cover all electronics and have
    display, buttons and a rotary encoder mounted to it.
    • All front panel electronics will connect to the main PCB via a
    wiring harness with 0.1” header pin connectors. Future
    iterations will use JST connectors.
    • Souriau UTS circular connectors allow sealed external
    connections to loads and sources.

    • Souriau UTS 8 Pin connectors
    • Ports A and B: Solar Panel Input, Battery Voltage output
    • Ports C and D: Regulated 5V output, Battery Voltage output
    • All connectors share the same body, but different pin
    locations are populated depending on function. Connection
    something to the wrong port wont cause any damage.
    • Each port Contains locations for Panel+, Panel-, Battery V+,
    Regulated V+, GND, Control, and pins for future expansion
    with sensors and digital communication.
