Could you show me a super capacitor's charging circuit? :(

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The fastest circuit to charge a supercapacitor depends on the specific model and its allowed surge current. Newer supercapacitors have improved peak current capabilities compared to earlier versions. Charging boards often include built-in current limiters, which can affect charging speed. For instance, supercapacitor banks in hybrid cars can be charged in one minute, while specialized supercapacitors used in applications like electrical detonators can charge in as little as 0.05 seconds.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of supercapacitor specifications and datasheets
  • Knowledge of current limiting circuits
  • Familiarity with hybrid vehicle energy systems
  • Experience with charging circuit design
NEXT STEPS
  • Research supercapacitor datasheets for peak current ratings
  • Explore current limiting circuit designs for optimal charging
  • Learn about supercapacitor applications in hybrid vehicles
  • Investigate rapid charging techniques for supercapacitors
USEFUL FOR

Electronics engineers, hobbyists designing energy storage systems, and anyone interested in optimizing supercapacitor charging circuits.

TL;DR
When i used powerbank circuit board to charge super capacitor, the speed was too low.
What is the fastest circuit to charge a supercapacitor?? could you show me??
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Can you link to the datasheet for the supercap that you want to charge? What are you wanting to use it for?

I think that the original supercaps were very limited in their peak current capabilities (for charging and discharging). I think that the newer ones are better, but I'm guessing that they are still limited...

The speed is mostly depend on model of super-capacitors and allowed surge current. Many charging boards have build-in current limiter, you should consult the specs. Supercapacitor banks assisting battery in hybrid cars are designed to be charged in one minute, while the fastest supercapacitor i seen (used to drive electrical detonator of explosive bolt) was rated for 0.05s.
