1,200-F ultracapacitor targets automotive needs

The 1,200-F cell iCAP is a high-powered ultracapacitor that optimizes the performance of lead acid, absorbent glass mat (AGM), and lithium ion batteries in cars, tractors and motorbikes. It enables improved start/stop technology performance for hybrid vehicles.

The 1,200-F cell ultracap features a 2.7-V working voltage, 84% higher power density than comparable products, 25-mΩ ac and 30-mΩ dc cell ESR. It provides 25 kW/kg or 32 kW/L power density and a life-cycle of 1-million cycles. The operating temperature range is extends from –40° to +65°C.
