Hi,
	Yes these will work very nicely with PICs. I am using them in  
conjunction
with a boost inverter (Minty Boost) and one or two NiMH AA cell(s).

	But All Electronics has no spec sheet on them.

	This is their description.....
"Output: approximately 3 Volts @ 40 mA. 60mm square x 2.5mm thick epoxy-
encapsulated silicon photovoltaic cell. Solid almost-unbreakable  
module with
solderable foil strips on backside. Ideal for solar-powered battery  
chargers and
other projects."

	Actually the original ones I had bought as a trial, followed this  
description.
Now AE is shipping a different cell which meets the nominal electrical
specifications, but are no longer encapsulated silicon, but rather on  
a glass
substrate.

	Would anyone have further information on these, the glass substrate  
ones?
Spec sheet, manufacturer?

TIA,
Heinz
