Lithium Ion Capacitors for Component Science (II)

4, differences

A lithium ion capacitor is a hybrid capacitor, and is a capacitor that combines the advantages of long life of an electric double layer capacitor and high capacity density of a lithium ion secondary battery.

5, application examples

5-1. In a low-power system, replace the former secondary battery with a lithium ion capacitor.

【instruction manual】

Lithium-ion capacitors have a large capacity and a small self-discharge current, so they can be used in combination with solar panels to replace the former secondary batteries with lithium-ion capacitors. 10 years without maintenance, while reducing replacement costs. The secondary battery needs to be replaced once every few years.

5-2. Application in the case of a machine's instantaneous stop and standby power supply

【instruction manual】

For equipment such as manufacturing equipment and medical equipment, even a momentary voltage drop can cause fatal injuries. The high temperature reliability of lithium ion capacitors can be used in narrow spaces with heat sources. Lithium ion capacitors can be used as a decentralized, selective backup power source and auxiliary power source (such as for solar panels. It is added as a server (CPU, DRAM, RAID controller, SSD, etc., standby power supply for the machine when the machine is momentarily stopped, etc.) In addition, it can be used as a retrofit energy for automobiles, vans, elevators, etc. from the viewpoint of power storage. It can also be used for solar power storage motor.

6. Summary

The "long life" of an electric double layer capacitor that can be repeatedly charged and discharged, and the "high capacity density" of a lithium ion secondary battery, can be stored with only a small amount of energy (low voltage), can operate at a high temperature, and is extremely safe This innovative type of capacitor will help create new application scenarios for energy conservation and environmental protection today. It is predicted that the lithium ion capacitor market in the near future will have a multi-billion yuan growth.
