leakage current can be higher.
5. Per IEC 62391-2, Pd =
6. Pmax =
7. Emax =
8. Estored = ½ CV2
9. Cycle per Document Number 1007239 available at
www.maxwell.com.
10. No more than 10% decrease in capacitance from
minimum initial capacitance or 50% increase in ESR
from maximum initial ESR.
11. Tested at 1 kV DC.
