Electric Double Layer Capacitors (EDLC) and Supercapacitors are two technical terms that often get used interchangeably but both devices vary in their application field and working principle.

S301RS208R2R7W is one of the many capacitors classified as EDLC. It has a maximum rated voltage of 2.7 V and a capacitance range of 0.22F to 8F. EDLCs have a higher capacitance than ordinary capacitors and also provide superior safety and reliability.

In an EDLC, an electrolyte solution is used to form an electrical double layer at the interfaces of two conducting electrodes, one of which is electrically charged. This double layer allows the EDLC to store energy in the form of a static electric field. The internal electrical resistance of an EDLC is very low due to the large surface area of the electrodes. This low resistance results in a very high-rate of energy transfer, making the EDLC suitable for applications where high power density is required.

However, because of their high energy density, EDLCs are relatively short-lived compared to other types of capacitors, and they are limited in their ability to withstand large surges of voltage. This has led to the development of supercapacitors, which are also known as ultracapacitors.

Supercapacitors are combinations of two kinds of capacitors--electrochemical capacitors and electrolytic capacitors. Electrochemical capacitors use porous carbon electrodes and an electrolyte solution, while electrolytic capacitors use aluminum or tantalum electrodes coated with a polymer electrolyte. The combination of these two capacitors provides a much higher capacitance than is possible with an EDLC. Supercapacitors also have a higher voltage rating (up to 2.85 V) and can handle much higher currents and charge and discharge rates.

The application field of EDLCs and Supercapacitors is primarily in start-stop-power applications, which require them to provide a quick burst of power to a system, such as in cars or heavy-duty industrial machines. In these applications, EDLCs are often used to provide a fast, reliable power source when the system needs to be switched on or off quickly, such as during engine start-stop cycles.

Supercapacitors are also used in high-power applications such as electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and laser power supplies. They are more suitable for applications that require high peak power, such as regenerative braking systems, solar and wind power systems, and electric vehicle acceleration. In these applications, the supercapacitor\'s ability to store and release power quickly, as well as its long lifespan makes it a great choice.

In summary, while EDLCs and Supercapacitors are both related to capacitors, they have different application fields and operate on different principles. EDLCs are suitable for applications where high power density is required, while Supercapacitors are better suited for high-power applications that require quick bursts of energy.
