Abstract:
A micro-solar assembly comprising:one side of a printed circuit board defining bare etched copper trace and pad connection areas along a first charge pathway and opposing charge pathway:(a) said first charge pathway defining a generally rectangular first charge cell pad area, diode connection area one and diode connection area two;(b) said opposing charge pathway defining an opposing charge connecting pad area adjacent and not connected to one side of the first charge cell pad area;(c) said diode connection area one and diode connection area two being electrically connected by a diode;(d) said diode connection area one being electrically connected by masked trace to said first charge cell pad area;(e) a solar chip having a bottom first charge conductive grid side electrically and structurally bonded to said first charge cell pad area, said solar chip having a top opposing charge light gathering side defining an opposing charge main bus bar, said opposing charge main bus bar being adjacent and electrically connected to said opposing charge connecting pad area;(f) said diode is a light emitting diode having two electrical and structural connections areas the first being electrically and structurally bonded to diode connection area one and the second being electrically and structurally bonded to diode connection area two.
