Medical Devices

Demand is increasing in the medical device market for pulse power solutions in appliances such as insulin pumps. There is also a growing medical telemetric market that will couple GPRS with other technologies such as GPS, accelerometers, and temperature sensors in wearable devices for patient location, medical alerts, data acquisition, or the controlled release of medications.

CAP-XX supercapacitors meet the low ESR, low noise, and size limitations of these small devices. Coupled with their ability to provide back-up power and extend the useful life of the main battery system, the flexibility and environmental friendliness of CAP-XX supercapacitors make them particularly suitable for patient care and medical monitoring.
