    摘要: An energy storage system is described for use in, for example, electronics systems such as a bank of computers. The disclosed energy storage systems allows the use of an efficient energy source, such as ultracapacitors, while providing a desired voltage level for an extended period of time. One embodiment of the energy storage system provides power to a load. The system includes a power module including at least one ultracapacitor adapted to store and discharge energy. The power module provides an output voltage as the ultracapacitor discharges energy. The system also includes a voltage regulator for boosting the output voltage of the power module. The voltage regulator may include a voltage converter. The voltage converter may be adapted to boost the output voltage when the output voltage falls below a predetermined threshold. The voltage converter may include a plurality of interleaving inductor circuits, each of the circuits including a switch and an inductor. The switches are adapted to be alternatingly closed and opened, thereby alternatingly storing energy in the inductors and discharging energy to the load.

    摘要: A rapid charging circuit for charging a power module is disclosed. The power module includes one or more ultracapacitors. The power module is charged using an energy source connected to the power module. The charging circuit includes a control circuit adapted to maintain a constant power level at the power module during charging as the voltage level across the power module increases. The control circuit includes a pulse-width modulator and an inductor connected in series with the power module. The pulse-width modulator can control a charge level of the inductor. The charge level may correspond to a current level which is in accordance with a desired power level at the power module and an instantaneous voltage level across the power module. The inductor may be adapted to limit a current level through the power module to a predetermined peak level. The control circuit may be adapted to provide a current level through the power module greater than a current level from said energy source during at least a portion of a charging period.

    摘要: A charge balancing circuit is configured to provide charge balancing for a bank of series connected charge storage devices. One embodiment of the charge balancing circuit comprises a voltage divider, an amplifier, and a negative feedback resistor connected between every two capacitors. The circuit is configured to monitor the voltage in each of the capacitors and, if the voltage in one of the capacitors is higher than the other, the circuit transfers energy from the higher charged capacitor to the lower charged capacitor until the capacitors are balanced. A current limiting resistor can be included for limiting the output current of the amplifier to a safe value and for providing feedback information regarding the health of the capacitor. An additional gain stage can also be included for increasing the output current of the amplifier for banks of large charge storage devices. The circuit can be used in bi-polar applications.
