The newly expanded Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) line of supercapacitors will be distributed by New Yorker Electronics. Additional capacitance values and cell sizes have been added to its already extensive supercapacitor platforms, the DGH 2.7 V and DSF 3.0 V series.
CDE’s DGH and DSF supercapacitors now range from board-mountable coin cell types to radial form factors and larger snap-in types. CDE can also combine components to create higher voltage custom modules with Source: New Yorker Electronicsactive or passive balancing. Most devices offer an operating temperature range of -40° C to 85° C and are all UL recognized.
The DGH and DSF radial supercapacitor series now offer capacitance values ranging from 0.5 F to 600 F at voltage ratings up to 3.0 V. The recently introduced VMF and VPF lithium ion capacitor (LiC) series feature values from 10 F to 220 F at up to 3.8 V.
The expansion comes on the heels of the recent addition of cutting-edge LiC hybrid types that offer higher operating voltages and greater energy densities. Supercapacitors (aka EDLCs or ultracapacitors) are rapidly becoming essential components for power circuit designers. They are used to supplement rechargeable batteries or as replacements for batteries in a very diverse range of applications.
