Re: how to chargie SUPERCAPACITORS being as efficencyaspoosi
Depends on the voltage/current characteristic of your source. If it gives almost constant power independent of the voltage, you can
simply use a full-wave rectifier to charge the supercap. If it shows a power maximum at a certain output voltage, you should implement
a DC/DC converter that controls the load current to achieve an optimal operation point.
If the input conditions are also changing, the converter has to implement a MPPT (maximum power point tracking) algorithm.
