Supercapacitors combine the energy-storage capability of batteries with the rapid charge and discharge
times of conventional capacitors. They handle the large instantaneous power demands inherent in flash
photos, playing audio and video, and wireless transmissions, enabling new functionality and extending
battery life.
Utilizing breakthrough nanotechnology processes, CAP-XX supercapacitors are the smallest and
thinnest available today for any given ESR and capacitance. They pack high energy and power densities
into thin prismatic packages suitable for use in slim, portable electronic devices such as camera phones,
PDAs, digital cameras and multimedia players.
About CAP-XX
CAP-XX Ltd. is a world leader in the design and manufacture of thin, flat supercapacitors and power
architectures for portable electronic devices. Supercapacitors resolve the performance limitations of
batteries and other current-limited energy sources, bridging the gap between the peak power demanded
by the device and that available from the source.
CAP-XX supercapacitors enable manufacturers to make smaller, thinner, longer-running and more
feature-rich portables such as cell phones, PDAs, location trackers and medical devices. The company,
listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London, is based in Sydney, Australia, has additional
production facilities in Malaysia, and sales offices in the UK and USA. For more information visit
