How to Quickly and Safely Charge Supercapacitors

A simple voltage regulating LED driver with constant current, usually regulated by sensing a low side, series current sense resistor, then a voltage clamp can be used to charge a super capacitor.

Keep the Balance Balancing of Supercapacitors

Supercapacitors (SC) usually operate at low voltages of around 2.7 V. In order to reach higher operating voltages, it is necessary to build a cascade of serial connected SC cells.
