Supercapacitor-assisted low dropout regulator technique: a new design approach to achieve high-efficiency linear DC–DC converters
TL;DR: The essentials of its generalised theory, few prototype implementations, and a discussion on SCALDO properties are presented, in addition to a discussion to indicate that this is not a variation of the switched capacitor converters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of Supercapacitor Technology and Its Potential Impact on New Power Converter Techniques for Renewable Energy
Thilanga Ariyarathna,Nihal Kularatna,Kosala Gunawardane,Dilini Jayananda,David Alistair Steyn-Ross +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of the new supercapacitor loss management theory applied to SC-assisted converters, with practical examples of implementation useful in renewable energy systems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Efficiency enhanced linear DC-DC converter topology with integrated DC-UPS capability
TL;DR: The conceptual background followed by experimental results of the DC UPS capability integrated SCALDO regulator using 12–5 V prototype are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supercapacitor-Assisted Techniques and Supercapacitor-Assisted Loss Management Concept: New Design Approaches to Change the Roadmap of Power Conversion Systems
TL;DR: It is shown that supercapacitors could function as a lossless voltage-dropping element in the power conversion stages, thereby significantly increasing the power Conversion stage efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modern Supercapacitors Technologies and Their Applicability in Mature Electrical Engineering Applications
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compared three common device families, namely, symmetrical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), hybrid capacitors with a lithium electrode, and battery capacitors based on pseudo capacitance concepts.
