Technical FAQs 4

How do you charge a super capacitor?

Most super capacitors (supercaps) can be discharged down to 0 V and recharged to their maximum voltage with the manufacturer recommended charge current. A simple voltage regulating LED driver with constant current, usually regulated by sensing a low side, series current sense resistor, then a voltage clamp can be used to charge a super capacitor.

What is the maximum capacitance a supercapacitor can provide?

The maximum capacitance that these capacitors can provide is 1 Farad. If the higher capacitance is required, the capacitors will need to be quite large, which may or may not fit into typical electronic circuits. Enter the supercapacitor.

Is a 1 farad 12V capacitor worth it?

A 1 Farad 12v capacitor like you would use in an car audio installation was simply too expensive and had far too little power storage. One reason I had been considering capacitors was not for power storage but for the side effect of cleaning up the overall noise introduced by the power system in the car.

What is a super capacitor?

For those of you who don't know much about super capacitors, here is a little bit of fun theory: Super capacitors act like any other kind of capacitor, only they can store tremendous amounts of energy. Many capacitors that you'd have seen in audio circuits have capacitances such as 470uf or 680uf (micro farads).
