FOR CORRECT USE OF SUPER CAPACITORS

1. Please confirm the operating conditions and the specifications of the

Super Capacitors befor using them.
2. The electrolyte of these Super Capacitors is sealed with material such as rubber.
When you use the capacitors for a long time at high temperature, the moisture of
the eleotrolyte evaporates and the equivalent series resistance (E.S.R.) increases.
The fundamental failure mode is the open mode depending on E.S.R. increase.
When using a capacitor, please introduce a safe design assuming unex-
pected capacitor failure, such as redundancy in design and protection from
fire and erroneous operation.
3. Please read 'Notes on Using the Super Capacitor' on page 60 when you design
the circuits using the Super Capacitors.

The FY series includes small-size electric double-layer capacitors with excellent voltage holding character-
istics. The FYD type occupies only a small area on a printed circuit board, and the FYH and FYL types feature a low
profile in height, so that they can be used in various systems.
These capacitors are ideal as long-time backup devices for minute-current loads in small and lightweight systems.

Features
• Product variety makes the FYD, FYH, and FYL types suitable for use in many types of application systems.
• Excellent voltage holding characteristics ideal for backup of 1 μ A to several hundred μ A.
• Smaller than other Super Capacitors (25% Iess than FS series in volume)
• Capacitance ranges from low to high (0.01 F to 2.2 F).

Applications
• Backup of CMOS microcomputers, static RAMs, DTSs (digital tuning systems)
• Memory backup of remote controllers and handy cassette player during battery exchange

Features
• Extremely low equivalent series resistance (ESR), ideal for supplying several 10 mA to 1 A for short periods of time
(about 1/2 the CV value when compared to the ESR of FA series)
• Small (about 1/4 in volume of aluminum electrolytic capacitor and 3/5 of FA series at same CV value)
• Product variety, including low-capacitance and high-capacitance models (0.047 F to 1.5 F)

Applications
Momentary backup sources for microcomputers, SRAMs, and DRAMs, and auxiliary power source for mechanical systems
(motors, relays, electromagnetic valves).

Table 3 Capacitance measurement
Capacitance ( Discharge System )
In the diagram below, charging is performed for a duration of 30 minutes, once the voltage of the condensor terminal
reaches 5.5 V.
Then, use a constant current load device and measure the time for the terminal voltage to drop from 3.0 to 2.5 V
upon discharge at 0.22 mA for 0.22 F, for example, and calculate the static capacitance according to the equation
shown below.

 ∗ Difference owing to method of measuring capacitance
Measurement of the capacitance values by Super capacitors accords to the constant resistance charge method.
If measured according to competitors' constant current, discharge and charge measurement methods, the specified
current values are smaller than those specified by us and therefore they are apparently 1.3 to 1.5 times the capacitance
values measured by our measurement method. Therefore, the backup capability of the same rated product as those
of competitiors is 1.3 to 1.5 times that of competitors.

This catalog describes the constant resistance charge method and the constant current discharge method.

(2) Equivalent series resistance (ESR)

ESR is calculated from expression (10) by using a 1 kHz oscillator, applying an AC current of 10 mA and measuring
the voltage (Vc) between both ends of the capaoitor.

(3) Current (30-minute value)

The current value is calculated from expression (11) by applying a voltage to the capacitor (C), and measuring the
voltage (VR) between both ends of the series resistor (RC) 30 minutes later. Prior to measurement, short between
both pins of the capacitor for 30 minutes or more to let it discharge. Follow the indication of the product when
determining the polarity of the capacitor during charging.

(4) Self-discharge characteristlic

(except HP, ED/L, FA, FE, FS, FT series, and 3.5 V and 6.5 V product)
The self-discharge characteristic is measured by charging a voltage of 5.0 VDC (charge protection resistance: 0 Ω)
according to the capacitor polarity for 24 hours, then releasing between the pins for 24 hours and measuring the pin-
to-pin voltage.
This test should be carried out in an environment with an ambient temperature of 25°C or below and relative humidity
of 70% RH or below.

 Notes on Using the Super Capacitor
(Electric Double-Layer Capacitor)

This capacitor uses an electrolyte and a rubber-sealed structure. Using it at a high temperature for many hours
may cause water content in the electrolyte to evaporate and increase equivalent series resistance.
The basic failure mode is an open mode caused by an increase of equivalent series resistance.

Failure rate
The failure rate calculated based on the field data is approximately 0.006 Fit.

Circuitry
a. Ensure that the maximum operating voltage and other rated values are selected reliably.
Application of a voltage exceeding the maximum operating voltage may not only deteriorate performance but
also damage the case, etc.
b. Since the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor is relatively high, do not use it in a smoothing
circuit such as a power supply circuit.
c. For marking display reasons, a outer tube is used for the capacitor, but its isolation is not guaranteed. Contact
with adjacent components may cause leakage.
d. In the manufacturing process, the capacitor is processed with the pin on the case side designated as the (–)
side. Note this (–) symbol when using the capacitor.
A discharge may occur during shipment, but some residual potential may have an adverse effect on other
components.
e. Use of a SuperCapacitor in the vicinity of a heating element (coil, power transistor, posistor, etc.) may heat the
capacitor itself and considerably shorten its service life.
f. Avoid exposure to acidic or alkaliue liquids.

Mounting
a. Excluding the FC series, this capacitor cannot be mounted with a reflow furnace such as IR and VPS. Avoid
dipping the capacitor in a solder dip bath.
b. Excluding the HP and HV series, When using flow automatic soldering, ensure that the soldering temperature
is 260˚C or below and soldering duration at one point does not exceed 10 sec.
c. For soldering with a soldering rod, select a soldering rod with a capacity of approximately 30 W and ensure that
the temperature at the rod tip does not exceed 400˚C and that the soldering duration does not exceed 3 sec.
For HP and ED/L series, ensure that the rod tip temperature does not exceed 320˚C and that the soldering
duration does not exceed 3sec.
For HP series and EDL series, rod tip temperature should not exceed 320˚C and soldering duration should not
exceed 3 sec. The rod temperature should be controlled reliably. Heating pins excessively may increase the
equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor.
d. Do not deform or file capacitor pins.
Doing so may cause solder plating on the pin to fall off and prevent solder from sticking.
e. Avoid mechanical impacts such as dropping on the floor and touching with a hard blade, to prevent renting
sleeves and pin wave.

Super Capacitors Vol.08 57

 Cleaning
a. Basically do not wash capacitors except the FM series. When washing is unavoidable, use a washing resistant
product.
b. Drying after washing should be performed within the maximum operating temperature range.

Storage
a. Store the product in an environment with a normal temperature and normal humidity without condensation.
b. Avoid exposing the product in direct sunlight for many hours. (Doing so may cause deterioration or discoloration
of the outer tube.)
c. Avoid storage in an acidic or alkaline atmosphere.

Taking the capacitors apart

a. The capacitors contains a trace of dilute sulfuric acid. Contact with hands, etc., may be harmful, so do not
disassemble them.
b. Do not use incineration for disposal. Instead, dispose of them as industrial waste.

When using our products, the following precautions should
be taken.
(1) Safety designing of an apparatus or a system allowing for failures of electronic components used
in the system

In general, failures will occur in electronic components at a certain probability. NEC TOKIN
makes every effort to improve the quality and reliability of electronic component products.
However, it is impossible to completely eliminate the probability of failures. Therefore, when
using NEC TOKIN’s electronic component products, systems should be carefully designed to
ensure redundancy in the event of an accident which would result in injury or death, fire, or social
damage, to ensure the prevention of the spread of fire, and the prevention of faulty operation.
(Please refer to pre-cautions to be taken when using SuperCapacitor capacitors for the details of
failures.)

(2) Quality level of various kinds of parts, and equipment in which the parts can be utilized
Electronic components have a standard quality level unless otherwise specified.

NEC TOKIN classifies the level of quality of electronic component products into three levels, in
order from a lower level, a standard quality level, a special quality level, and a custom quality level
in which a customer individually specifies a quality assurance program. Each of the quality levels
has recommended applications.
If a user wants to use the electronic parts having a standard quality level in applications other than
the applications specified for the standard quality level, they should always consult a member of
our company’s sales staff before using the electronic parts.

Standard quality level: Computers, office automation equipment, communications equipment,

measuring instruments, AV equipment, household electrical appli-
ances, machine tools, personal equipment, industrial robots
Special quality level: Transportation equipment (automobiles, railways, shipping, or the
like), traffic signals, disaster prevention/crime prevention systems,
safety devices, and medical equipment which is not directly intended
for life-support purposes
Custom quality level: Equipment for airplanes, aerospace equipment, nuclear power control
systems, and medical equipment, apparatus or systems for life-sup-
port purposes

Unless otherwise shown, the quality level of NEC TOKIN’s electronic component products included
in documents such as catalogues, data sheets or data books is the standard quality level.
