摘要： Systems and methods for integrated control and monitoring of charging and cell balancing in a group of ultracapacitors. Monitoring and control circuitry can be configured for built-in monitoring feedback to the charger and the balancing circuits to dynamically improve performance, extend system lifetime, decrease charging time, increase available power and/or energy, and/or enhance safety and reliability of the group of ultracapacitors.

摘要： A modular integrated ultracapacitor-based energy storage and power delivery apparatus (UCAP module) is described. In some embodiments, the UCAP module comprises: at least one ultracapacitor cell coupled together in a series, parallel, or combination of both series and parallel configuration; an integrated charging unit; conductive hardware electrically coupling the ultracapacitors cells together; at least one UCAP terminal rod extending throughout the UCAP module and used to route power within the UCAP module and in some embodiments to other UCAP modules; and a protective casing. In some embodiments the UCAP terminal rod couples the UCAP module to at least one additional UCAP module in a series, parallel, or a combination of both series and parallel configurations. In other embodiments, the UCAP module further comprises connector rods that electrically and mechanically couple the UCAP module to at least one additional UCAP module.
