The Time Constant, TSupercapacitors Energy DensityApplicationsCharge and Leakage CurrentsMeasurementsLife CalculationsEnvironmental Operation RisksCharacteristicsThe time constant of capacitors is the time needed to discharge a loaded capacitor through the insulation resistance (IR) to 1/e (~37%) of the initial voltage. This constant denominated t(tau) is the product of IR and C (capacitance), usually abbreviated RC. Supercapacitors don''t have any dielectric even if the true leakage current represents a kin...See more on passive-components Published: Oct 24, 2018MarketsandMarkets
