Converter 205 is connected to a corresponding DC power source 101 at input terminals 314 and 316. The converted power of the DC power source 101 is output to the circuit through output terminals 310, 312. Between the input terminals 314, 316 and the output terminals 310, 312, the converter circuit includes input and output capacitors 320, 340, backflow prevention diodes 322, 342 and a power conversion circuit including a controller 306 and an inductor 308.
Diode 342 is in series with output 312 with a polarity such that current does not backflow into the converter 205. Diode 322 is coupled between the positive output lead 312 through inductor 308 which acts a short for DC current and the negative input lead 314 with such polarity to prevent a current from the output 312 to backflow into solar panel 101.
