"Our new SCM Series supercapacitor modules deliver optimal pulse power handling characteristics that significantly outperform the competition at a very competitive price," said Shawn Hansen, the worldwide business manager for specialty capacitors at AVX.
SCM Series supercapacitor modules are rated for use in operating temperatures spanning -40°C to +65°C at 5.0 - 5.4V balanced, or, with voltage de-rated to 3.9 - 4.6V per cell, -40°C to +85°C balanced. Unbalanced options are also available. Packaged in plastic or shrink-wrapped cases spanning 14mm to 24mm in length with vertical or horizontal radial leads, the series is compatible with hand, reflow, and wave soldering so long as appropriate precautions are enacted, and is both lead-free compatible and RoHS compliance compatible. All SCM Series parts are tested and qualified for life cycle, high temperature load-life, temperature and humidity characteristics, and vibration resistance, and are shipped in bulk packaging. Current lead-time for the series is four to eight weeks, and custom modules are available upon request.
