To reduce thickness and manufacturing costs, CAP-XX increased the power and energy density of its electrode materials to deliver equivalent performance in about half the volume, and eliminated the folded edges and copper terminals that contribute to thickness in its standard supercapacitors.
CAP-XX supercapacitors are said to benefit from a nanotechnology construction that stores charge in engineered carbon electrodes on aluminium foil, minimising resistance and maximising capacitance.
Three footprints are available and each footprint can be supplied in thicknesses of 0.6, 0.7 or 0.9mm. The A series, with a footprint of 19.5 x 20mm, has a capacitance from 60 to 180mF and an ESR ranging from 45 to 200mΩ. The W series measures 28 x 20mm, has a capacitance ranging from 100 to 300mF and an ESR of 24 to 120mΩ. The S series has a footprint of 39 x 20.2mm, a capacitance of 180 to 540mF and an ESR from 16 to 75mΩ. All operate within a temperature range of -40 to 85°C.
