EDLCs with Power Density to 4.1Wh/kg and 15F to 60F Capacitance

August 16, 2017 by Paul Shepard

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. today announced an extension to its 220 EDLC ENYCAP™ series of electrical double-layer energy storage capacitors (EDLCs) for energy harvesting, power backup, and UPS power source applications.

Available in power and energy versions with high stability, the Vishay BCcomponents devices now deliver a wider range of capacitance values in eight small case sizes ranging from 16mm by 20mm to 18mm by 40mm.

For the industrial, telecom, and PC markets, the polarized energy storage capacitors released today offer high power density to 4.1 Wh/kg, capacitance values from 15 F to 60 F, and a rated voltage of 2.7V at +65 °C. The 220 EDLC ENYCAP series devices feature very low internal resistance and rapid charge and discharge performance. The through-hole capacitors offer long leads and are RoHS-compliant.

Samples and production quantities of the 220 EDLC ENYCAP series are available now, with lead times of six to eight weeks for larger quantities.
