Supercapacitors

Supercapacitors, also known as EDLC for Electric Double Layer Capacitor, are energy storage devices that are easy to use and, in many ways, comparable to batteries. They close the gap between capacitors and batteries.Supercapacitors have:

  • Higher power density than batteries
  • Higher energy density than conventional capacitors

Series WCAP-STSC

  • Mounting Style: Radial THT
  • Type: Standard Cylindrical
  • Capacitance: 3 – 50 F
  • Voltage: 2.7 V (DC)

Series WCAP-SISC

  • Mounting Style: Snap-In
  • Type: Standard Cylindrical
  • Capacitance: 100 & 350 F
  • Voltage: 2.7 V (DC)

The Supercapacitor – A Vertile Energy Storage Device and How to Use it

In the course of the presentation, important properties of Supercapacitors and key features of the design-in process will be discussed. Supercapacitors require, like any other energy storage system, a certain infrastructure in order to store and deliver their energy.

Measurements

Redexpert

With the help of REDEXPERT you will find the right capacitor based on your technical requirements. The tool supports, for example, with measured values for capacitance, impedance, ESR and dissipation factor (DF). The ability to compare individual components with each other in terms of measured values enables convenient component selection.

Introduction to the capacitor technologies and how to use them

Capacitors make up two thirds of all electronic components and there is a huge diversity of technologies which can overwhelm young engineers. All capacitors store electrical energy in the electrical field created in a dielectric material and they are used for very diverse applications like voltage stability and filtering. How that works differs between tiny MLCCs and huge electrolytic cells, from pF ratings up to the hundreds of Farads in supercapacitors. In this presentation, we introduce different capacitor solutions taking into account the advantages and disadvantages and with a focus on the final application.
