The 5.5V 0.1F Super Capacitor is a coin-type or radial lead capacitor designed for energy storage, backup power, and voltage stabilization applications. Unlike traditional electrolytic capacitors, super capacitors (also called ultracapacitors) offer much higher capacitance and fast charge/discharge cycles, making them ideal for use in low-power embedded systems, memory backup, real-time clocks, and energy harvesting circuits.
Its 5.5V rated voltage and 0.1 Farad capacitance provide a modest energy reserve, enough to maintain data integrity in volatile memory (like SRAM) or power a real-time clock during power outages. The compact form factor and long life make it suitable for wearable electronics, smart meters, IoT nodes, and consumer devices.
