This document summarizes the results of modeling a NE-38K1RA solar cell manufactured by SHARP. It includes the components, manufacturer part number, output characteristics from simulation showing current and power at varying voltages, an evaluation circuit diagram, and a comparison table showing good agreement between measured and simulated values for maximum power, voltage at maximum power, maximum current, short circuit current, and open circuit voltage.
