Nanoramic, Inc.'s Fastcap® SD85-500 Chip Ultracapacitor for Backup Power in Solid State Drives

Nanoramic’s FastCap® Chip Ultracapacitor has 10x higher energy density than the polymer tantalum ultracapacitors, therefore SSD designers can benefit from a high energy interim power supply in a small and slim design. Such benefits allow for more available space on the PCB, longer back up time, and comparable or lower cost than tantalum capacitor solutions. Designers can utilize the additional space for other crucial components like more DRAM or flash memory. This is a significant advantage, as SSD designers are finding ways to increase the memory density on standard size SSD cards.
