Abstract

A device which can dynamically configure an array of power supply cells such as photovoltaic (PV) solar cells to provide power to a load device based on the power requirements of the load device. By selectively configuring the array of power supply cells according to one of a number of available series/parallel connection schemes, the supplied power can be more closely tailored by a controller to the requirements of the load device.
