Abstract
A photovoltaic system is disclosed herein, which includes a blocking diode, a string of photovoltaic modules, a boost converter and a controller. The photovoltaic modules are connected in series with the blocking diode. A voltage input terminal of the boost converter is connected to an anode of the blocking diode, and a voltage output terminal of the boost converter is connected to a cathode of the blocking diode. In use, the controller can drive the boost converter when the blocking diode is cut off.
