Hello there.
I have got a DC/DC boost controller chip with below specifications :
On-board ultra-small PFM controlled DC / DC boost controller chip
2-any input 0.9V ~ 5V DC voltage output 5V DC voltage can be stable, with two AA batteries input to output 500 ~ 600MA current single AA battery output current 200ma about for mobile phones, camera, single-chip, digital products supply. Can be stable output voltage 5V DC
3-onboard USB female seat, can be supplied directly to the USB interface device
4- on-board input voltage indicator
5- PCB size: 34 (mm) x16.2 (mm)
One AA battery is enough to run a 5-volt usb LED light. I tested it and it works fine. But when I connect it to solar panels generating 1.5 to 3.5 volts (solar panel instead of a AA battery) , it doesn't work!!! I checked the voltage of solar panels exposed to light when not wired ; it is 1.5 to 3.5 volts. But when I checked the voltage of solar panels wired to the boost controller ; it is 0.65 volts!
What is happening ?!
Thanks
