Inherent quick discharge of supercapacitors improves start/stop systems and provides engine assistance with regenerative braking and acceleration smoothing. Additionally, supercapacitors increase battery life, protecting the investment in expensive electric vehicle batteries.
Supercapacitors provide energy harvesting systems that power communication for IOT devices, providing a power buffer to store enough energy for power bursts (pulse power) needed to acquire and transmit data during peak demand, particularly if data will be transmitted across a wireless network. More easily charged than batteries, supercapacitors can be charged and harvest energy from the environment.
When configured alongside a battery, supercapacitors extend battery life by offloading the stress of high transient loads. The supercapacitor helps keep the energy going into and out of the battery in a more constant state, without putting undue pressure on the battery.
Supercapacitors' inherent characteristics make them ideal for backup power supplies for devices like smartphones, real time clocks, camera flash, smart meters-servers, and solid-state drives.
Reusing R&D testers is a cumbersome, expensive approach to production testing for supercapacitors. Hiller’s supercapacitor test platform is based on P-XLe, an expansion to the proven PXI platform, providing a simple, scalable testing solution so you can quickly, accurately, and inexpensively validate and move products.
Escalate supercapacitor production and increase throughput with dedicated production testers. Test to your exact specifications with scalable systems that deliver accurate results so you have confidence in the test data.
A QA test solution that makes it easy for customers to test, incorporate, adopt, and use your supercapacitor. Allow customers to validate your supercapacitor upon receipt with the same test functionality and measurement science used in production.
Testing incoming supercapacitors shouldn’t be complicated. With Hiller’s line of Benchtop Supercapacitor Test Instruments, simply connect a supercapacitor, select your supercapacitor to prepopulate your manufacturer’s test set, and begin testing in just a few clicks.
