Introducing SuperCapacitors for Rapid Charging and Discharging 
Product Lineup of SuperCapacitors

 

Generally, SuperCapacitors are lead components and cannot be reflow mounted. Therefore, they are mounted by hand solder or solder dip. 
The Poke-Home (wire catch) connector manufactured by KYOCERA AVX facilitates the reflow mounting of SuperCapacitors. When used in conjunction with a Poke-Home connector, reflow implementation is possible.

Features

Poke-Home connector
  • The SuperCapacitor and substrate can be connected without the use of hand soldering or dip soldering.
  • After reflow mounting the Poke-Home connector on the board, it is easy to insert the lead wire of the SuperCapacitor.
  • High contact reliability through secure wire catch.
  • No jig required when mounting.
  • Can also be used with leaded components other than SuperCapacitors (aluminum electrolytic capacitors, ceramic capacitors, varistors, etc.).
