How It Works

A new dimension in power generation.
SuperXcap capacitors from OptiXtal.

SuperXcap Capacitors from OptiXtal could start by significantly upgrading your product line. Soon after they could boost your bottom line. The SuperXcap capacitor instantaneously generates the power burst your application requires and then recharges in seconds. And with 500,000 cycles or more before changeout, it’s there for the long haul.

Unlike competitive capacitors that are over-big, over-
weight
and over-awkward, OptiXtal capacitors are light, trim, thin, and flexible. Locate them where you need them. Configure them to suit your product design.

  • Watts per kg: SuperXcap 5F capacitors deliver close to 5x the power density of any comparable capacitor now available.
  • Watts per liter: SuperXcap 5F capacitors deliver 1.5x the efficiency of any comparable capacitor.

Whenever a battery-operated device is used,
power diminishes. Sooner or later the battery loses power and performance is compromised. Solution: spec an OptiXtal SuperXcap into the design and the battery will last far longer. Regardless of the number of succeeding usage cycles, the device will never be underpowered by a dissipated source until the battery is completely depleted.

SuperXcap capacitors store the charge between an ionically conducting electrolyte and a conducting electrode assembled in ultra thin pouches. Competitive capacitors are assembled by techniques that require them to be thick, bulky and heavy. Which makes them hard to work with … and even harder to work around.
