A first approach on parallel-monitor integration circuit for energy-capacitor-system (ECS)

A novel integrated circuit has been developed for a high efficiency electric power storage system, called the energy-capacitor-system. The integrated circuit mainly acts as a voltage-regulator to protect electric-double-layer capacitors from overcharging. The clump-voltage of the IC is 2.6 V and its temperature coefficient is 0.05 mV/deg. The developed IC can be successfully applied to the energy capacitor system.
