Webinar: A real life Supercapacitor backup solution

Würth Elektronik Webinar: WE Backup Your Application – a real-life Supercapacitor backup solution

If the application’s power supply breaks down, this situation is not pleasant. Würth Elektronik eiSos built a demonstration showing a hot-swappable backup solution of 10 cm x 18.5 cm (3.94 inch x 7.3 inches).

The input voltage is 24V, and the backup output voltage is 12 V for a normal industrial power rail application. The available output power is 30 W (12 V @ 2.5 A).

We also discuss the classification of Supercapacitors, the model parameters and performance, and the charge-, discharge, and frequency behavior.

We have different tools to support your design-in process. For example, the Support Note SN009, the Application Note ANP077, and currently, we are working on a Supercapacitor bank calculation tool. We support you in your Design. We used the software for and from the LTC3351 from Analog Devices for the power stage.
