This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Capacitor-based charge pumps (or Q-pumps) generally aren’t useful for sourcing large amounts of current, but they work well in niche ...

A research group has successfully developed a high-capacity capacitor, an energy storage device -- using a solid electrolyte with high deformability -- that can operate at high temperatures. With this ...

Sponsored by Texas Instruments: A bidirectional buck/boost converter combined with a supercapacitor can generate peak pulse currents for battery-operated smart meters and provide backup power for line ...

The electrification trend in the automotive sector shows no signs of abating, and electrolytic capacitors have proved to be a reliable source of high-density power delivery in electric vehicles (EVs).

Reliable high-capacity energy storage is one of the major challenges we face in developing new electrical technology. From long-range electric cars to backups for variable-output alternative energy ...
