The PWM controllers are running (switching) at 50 KHz and up, like a switching power supply without the inductor. The solar panel is performing the role of the inductor. In a normal buck converter when the switch closes, the inductor controls the rate of rise of the current. With these PWM controllers, the constant current nature of the solar panel performs the current control.
