For about $2, you can buy a 10,000uF standard electrolytic cap or you can buy a DGH504Q5R5 super cap with about 50 times the capacitance and thus 50 times the charge storage. | |

| Jun 16, 2018 at 7:18 | comment | added | LorenzoDonati4Ukraine-OnStrike | Please, don't add generic links to your posts. They may give unexpected and variable results in the future and they don't improve the post at all (people browsing this site are expected to know how to perform a google search for generic terms). It is much better to link directly to (for example) a Wikipedia article or a datasheet (possibly from the manufacturer site). And if you really want to make your posts shine, it would be better yet to quote some relevant excerpts (or give a summary by yourself) from the documents you are linking to. | |
