What is a supercapacitor module?

Many manufacturers design customized supercapacitor modules to meet the requirements of a specific application. Supercapacitors have low cell voltages, typically 0.9to 3.3V, and they are commonly connected in parallel or series to form modules.

Which supercapacitors are available at Mouser Electronics?

Supercapacitors & Ultracapacitors are available at Mouser Electronics from industry leading manufacturers. Mouser is an authorized distributor for many supercapacitor and ultracapacitor manufacturers including AVX, Cornell Dubilier, Eaton, Elna, Ioxus, KEMET, Maxwell, Nichicon, Panasonic, Vishay, & more.

How are supercapacitors categorised?

Supercapacitors are categorised based on the design of the electrodes. Electric double layer capacitors have carbon electrodes with a much higher static capacitance than others. Capacitance measures a component's ability to collect and store energy in the form of an electrical charge. It's measured in Farads (F).

What are double layer supercapacitors?

They generate an electrical field between two conductor plates and are also known as supercapacitors. RS offer an extensive range of high-quality double layer supercapacitors from leading brands including Vishay, KEMET, Panasonic, and of course RS PRO. Supercapacitors are categorised based on the design of the electrodes.

Are Rs supercapacitors a good brand?

RS offer an extensive range of high-quality double layer supercapacitors from leading brands including Vishay, KEMET, Panasonic, and of course RS PRO. Supercapacitors are categorised based on the design of the electrodes. Electric double layer capacitors have carbon electrodes with a much higher static capacitance than others.

What is a supercapacitor & how does it work?

Thanks to their low equivalent series resistance (ESR), supercapacitors provide high power density and high load currents to achieve almost instant charge in seconds. Temperature performance is also strong, delivering energy in temperatures as low as –40°C.
