SuperCapacitors: A Reliable Backup Power Solution
Written By: Johnson Jiang
Abstract:
Electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) are electrochemical capacitors called “SuperCapacitors,” or supercaps, due to their high energy density. Compared to traditional electrolytic capacitors, SuperCapacitors store electrical energy about two to three orders of magnitude higher and achieve several hundred thousand to millions of charge-discharge cycles. This advantage
comes from the special construction of SuperCapacitors.
