  4. "Unstable" Power Supply Simulates Solar Panel Behavior
    Giovanni Romeo Giuseppe Urbini
    This power supply may seem a bit strange, since it’s not stable in voltage or in current. However, it simulates the behavior of a solar panel and can be very useful if you’re working with a solar-powered...
