The new DCN series of super capacitors from Illinois Capacitor offers capacitance values up to an astonishing 3,500 Farads, while maintaining small case sizes. Custom modules are also available to combine multiple capacitors for combinations of higher voltage ratings or capacitance.
The DCN Series now includes an expanded range of values and voltages, from 1 F (Farad) to 3,500 F with voltage ratings from to 5.5WVDC. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +60°C for extended life performance in countless applications. The new additions extend the capabilities of the series into applications where capacitors may not have been previously considered.

DCN Super capacitors are an excellent choice for battery replacements or supplements. Unlike batteries, they do not degrade with each cycle. At 2.7 volts, DCN load life is rated at 86,700 hours. Operating life is rated at 10 years with 500,000 cycles. Applications for these super capacitors include: energy harvesting, battery pack alternatives, memory backup, battery/capacitor hybrids, UPS systems, emergency lighting, solar lighting, audio power boost and more. The 400 F products also continue to be popular, with more than enough capacity for many exciting applications.

All values in the DCN Series are radial configuration, with various case sizes and lead terminations. The parts are also fully RoHS compliant. Like other IC capacitors, each DCN Series capacitor is 100% burn-in tested.
