Revolutionary IQ8 Series Technology

Grid-Forming Microinverter Innovation

This technology allows your solar system to form a microgrid and continue providing power during daylight hours even when the utility grid is down—without requiring battery storage. This breakthrough capability enables solar systems to continue producing power even when the electrical grid is down, without requiring large battery systems.

The brain of the semiconductor-based microinverter is our proprietary application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which enables the microinverter to operate in grid-tied or off-grid modes. This intelligent switching capability represents a significant advancement over traditional string inverter systems.

Advanced 55nm ASIC Technology

This chip is built in advanced 55 nm technology with high-speed digital logic and has superfast response times to changing loads and grid events, alleviating constraints on battery sizing for home energy systems. This cutting-edge semiconductor technology ensures optimal performance across varying environmental conditions.

The advanced ASIC technology enables high-speed digital logic and rapid response to changing loads and grid events, making IQ8 microinverters ideal for modern smart grid applications and dynamic energy management.
