What’s so Exciting About Supercapacitor Modules?

A self-guided presentation that explains how and where to use supercapacitor (EDLC) modules. Supercaps are based on a carbon (nanotube) technology, which creates a very large double-layer surface area with an extremely small separation between layers. When an electrical charge is applied to the nanotube material, a double electric field is generated, which acts like a giant dielectric. While individual supercaps can have very high capacitance, maximum voltage ratings are low. This is why there is a need for supercapactor modules. Modules can provide very high capacity with effective voltage ratings. Presentation also covers types of balancing, durability and popular applications. Applications span Industrial, Transportation, Energy and More!
