PHOTOVOLTAIC GENERATION DEVICE AND SYSTEM AND APPLICATION THEREOF TO AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE

摘要

A photovoltaic device (2) comprising: a CIGS photovoltaic module (20) having a so-called top surface, intended to be exposed to light radiation; and a light emitting diode (21) emitting light at a wavelength of less than 600 nm and transparent to radiation in the near infrared, attached to said top surface of the photovoltaic module. A photovoltaic generation system (200) comprising: at least one such photovoltaic device (2); a system of switches (24, 26) to selectively connect said photovoltaic module to said light emitting diode or to a terminal supplying an external load (25); and a control circuit (27) for controlling said system of switches. An electrical system comprising: such a photovoltaic generation system (2); a battery (25) connected to said supply terminal; and at least one electronic circuit (30) connected to said battery in order to be powered. An implantable medical device (1) comprising such an electronic system.
