Electric Double Layer Capacitors (EDLC) and Supercapacitors

Electric double layer capacitors (EDLC) and supercapacitors, otherwise known as ultracapacitors or supercaps, are fast-charging energy storage devices. Ultracapacitors stand out from traditional capacitors due to their larger capacitance, range of voltage, and higher power density. They are used for energy storage and conversion as well as to deliver high power during peak loads or to bridge transients.

M0810-2R5105-R Application Field

The M0810-2R5105-R EDLC is designed for high power applications such as electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and industrial applications. It can store huge amount of energy and deliver it quickly and efficiently, making it the ideal energy storage device for applications such as electric vehicles and smart grid systems. It is also used in consumer electronics, such as digital cameras and portable power banks, as well as for industrial applications in robotic arms and aerospace technology.

M0810-2R5105-R Working Principle

The M0810-2R5105-R EDLC uses electrostatic principle to store energy. Its main components are two carbon electrodes separated by an electrolyte, which causes an electrostatic charge to be stored in the capacitor when voltage is applied. The anode absorbs and stores positive ions (cations) in its porous structure, while the cathode attracts and stores negative ions (anions) in its structure. When electrons flow through the circuit, the cations and anions both migrate towards the oppositely charged carbon electrode, resulting in an electrostatic charge build-up. This charge can then be released when the external circuit is opened, allowing the electrons to flow in the opposite direction and reestablish balance.

M0810-2R5105-R Advantages

The M0810-2R5105-R EDLC has several advantages, including:

• High capacitance – The EDLC’s high capacitance makes it ideal for a variety of applications, such as electric vehicles and energy storage applications.
