This calculator determines timekeeping operation using a supercapacitor based upon starting and ending capacitor voltages, discharge current, and capacitor size.
Being free of chemical reactions means that supercapacitors, can operate for millions of charge-discharge cycles. For batteries, depending on the chemistry, the charge
Charge time can be difficult to predict if the initial, reduced charge current is unknown or slowly increases out of thermal regulation up to voltage V1, as shown above.
It bridges the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries. It typically stores 10 to 100 times more energy per unit mass or energy per unit volume than electrolytic capacitors,
This handy tool calculates the time it takes to discharge a super capacitor from an initial to a final voltage value under constant current and resistor
The rate of self-discharge is dependent on the state of charge it was held out before being disconnected from the circuit. A part that is quickly charged then left to sit will discharge faster
It is possible to achieve high charge and discharge currents due to their low internal resistance. Batteries usually take up to several hours to reach a
This handy tool calculates the time it takes to discharge a super capacitor from an initial to a final voltage value under constant current and resistor load conditions
Being free of chemical reactions means that supercapacitors, can operate for millions of charge-discharge cycles. For batteries,
Take a 6V power source that is allowed to discharge to 4.5V before the equipment cuts off. By the time the supercapacitor reaches this voltage threshold, a linear discharge only delivers 44% of
Calculates charge and discharge times of a capacitor connected to a voltage source through a resistor You may use one of the following SI prefix after a value: p=pico, n=nano, u=micro,
Take a 6V power source that is allowed to discharge to 4.5V before the equipment cuts off. By the time the supercapacitor reaches this voltage
Leakage current is a charge maintaining current while the supercapacitor is on charge. In order to calculate required backup time over system operating temperature range, designers need to
