Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 5. Three-stage lead acid battery charge controller flowchart. The implementation of a battery charge controller in Simulink is shown in Fig. 6. The battery charge controller read in the battery voltage and SoC as input. The Simulink utilized the compare to constant block as if condition to determine if the battery SoC less than 100 %, if the condition is true it will disable the float stage by allowing the MPPT duty cycle to pass through the multiply block so that the charger enters into either bulk or absorption charging stage. If the condition is false, meaning the battery already reaches its SoC of 100 % it will enable float stage by sending zero to set the duty cycle to zero. The condition to determine the charger to enter MPPT or constant voltage charging stage is carryout by the battery voltage is less than or equal the constant voltage set-point, if the condition is true then enable MPPT charging by allowing MPPT duty cycle to pass through the MPPT/CV charging multiply block, then through the disable float stage multiply block to the PWM generator block for output to the buck converter switching device. If the condition is false, the charger enters into constant
