This series delivers 1,000 hours at 85\u00b0C\/85% RH-rated voltage and is industry-leading in the market with operational temperature ranging from -40\u00b0C to 105\u00b0C. These supercapacitors are qualified to an automotive testing protocol. These capacitors are manufactured in an ISO TS 16949 certified plant and are subjected to PPAP\/PSW and change control. They are ideal for automotive applications needing a main power system backup during a power loss, such as ADAS, autonomous vehicles, and central gateway ECUs. Supercapacitors are ideal for maintaining the main power system&#8217;s real-time clock or volatile memory when it is removed, such as during a power failure or when the main power system&#8217;s battery has been removed for replacement. Additionally, these supercapacitors offer power backup in equipment ranging from IoT devices, smart meters, medical devices, and industrial computing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using supercapacitors for automotive electronics enables freedom from the design limits imposed by finite battery lifetimes. The supercapacitor&#8217;s benign open-circuit failure mode contrasts with typical short-circuit battery failures that may result in outgassing or ignition. Furthermore, supercapacitors are a cost-effective alternative to small backup batteries. Depending on the type of load and current demand, they can store enough energy to provide backup for durations ranging from a few seconds to several hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>KEMET&#8217;s miniature supercapacitors use a proprietary aqueous electrolyte solution that provides high durability against liquid leakage, vibrations, and thermal shock, thus high reliability in harsh environments. Aqueous electrolytes are highly conductive, have a low environmental impact, and are non-toxic and non-flammable. Unlike a battery, supercapacitors store and release energy quickly through physical adsorption and the ions desorption in the electrolyte between its electrodes. With the supercapacitor&#8217;s low internal resistance, these devices can fully charge within a few seconds. In contrast, a secondary battery cell can take from ten minutes to several hours to fully charge. Moreover, there is no theoretical limit to the life cycle, whereas a lithium-ion secondary cell has a finite lifetime of about 500 cycles. They also typically have a greater resistance to moisture absorption than organic compounds, resulting in a longer life with better stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, KEMET improved the electrolyte with the existing aqueous technology and have realised to get the world&#8217;s first Supercapacitor with heat resistance of 105\u00b0C. According to a Markets and Research report, the global supercapacitor market generated $4.4 billion in 20222 and is estimated to reach $15.2 billion by 2028, with a CAGR of 22.95% from 2022 to 2028*. An increase in demand for electric automotive applications, energy-efficient equipment for solar and wind power system, and increased use in monitoring and stabilising for industrial applications is boosting the growth of the global supercapacitor market.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>* Source: <em>Supercapacitor Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020\u20132027<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KEMET announces its new high-performance supercapacitor for automotive electronics, FMU Series.
