Solar Magic is a 4-terminal module made by National Semiconductor Inc.
that's supposed to "squeeze every bit of energy out of a solar panel even if
it's in the shade", according to a high official at National. Beyond that,
there seems to be total secrecy. This is highly unusual for National Semi,
noted for their total disclosure policy on all their ICs and Semiconductor
products for engineers to use in their designs.
Why all the secrecy? Why can't they present it honestly and in a forthright
manner - - and also maybe mention the price?
