3V prismatic supercapacitors support coin cells and saves BoM
Peak power support to 3V coin cell batteries is provided by the 3V thin prismatic supercapacitors announced by Cap-XX. They also save on bill of materials (BoM) costs as they eliminate the need for a 2.7V low dropout (LDO) regulator for less expensive, smaller, more energy-efficient designs with extended battery life, says the company.
