BestCap Ultra Low ESR Supercapacitor GENERAL DESCRIPTION The BestCapTM series of electrochemical supercapacitors offer excellent high power pulsing characteristics, based on the combination of high capacitance and ultra low ESR. Based on unique aqueous chemistry (RHISS - rechargeable hydrogen ion solid state), the polymer electrolyte system is capable of ultrathin construction, down to 0.7mm. It is also environmentally friendly as it contains no liquids or hazardous chemicals. Initial evaluation samples have a voltage of 5.5v and capacitance between 60 and 200mF. Ultra low ESR performance is 60 to 250 milliohms depending on package size. Ideal replacements for more bulky aluminum electrolytics, where they offer superior energy density. BestCapTM devices are suitable for use in hybrid battery pack applications where they can extend battery life.
