Technical FAQs 4

Can a super capacitor be connected to a solar battery?

I find some people connect a super capacitor like (16v 88F capacitor bank) in parallel with the 12v 100Ah solar battery to optimize the surge current draws from the battery due to running heavy inductive load by the inverter (to increasing the battery lifespan).

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.

Why does a super capacitor charge at a constant voltage?

Eventually, the super capacitor voltage, and therefore the charging circuit’s operating efficiency, increases so the capacitor charges at the desired constant (fast or max) charge current, ICHG, until it reaches and remains at constant voltage (CV) regulation voltage, VREG.

Can a super capacitor be discharged down 0 V?

All trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Most super capacitors (supercaps) can be discharged down to 0 V and recharged to their maximum voltage with the manufacturer recommended charge current.
