Kamcap

Any Super capacitor/ultra capacitor will discharge through an internal shunt resistance in the case of electrification. This supercap leakage current is called leakage current, which affects the self-discharge of the low leakage supercapacitor/ultra capacitor unit. Similar to some secondary battery technologies, the voltage of Super capacitor/ultra capacitor also needs to be balanced when used in series, because the leakage current exists in the super capacitor, and the magnitude of the internal shunt resistance determines the voltage distribution on the series Super capacitor/ultra capacitor unit. When the voltage of ultracapacitor is stable, the voltage on each cell will change with the supercapacitor leakage current, not with the capacitance. The larger the leakage current, the smaller the rated voltage. On the contrary, the smaller the leakage current, the higher the rated voltage. This is because the leakage current will cause the discharge of Super capacitor/ultra capacitor cel...
