2.2.5.1 Supercapacitor

A through-hole component footprint is available on the board and allows user to populate a supercapacitor to power the system without any external power. The recommended part is the Panasonic EEC-S0HD224H 220 mF (0.22 F) supercapacitor and can be purchased from major electronic component distributers.

NOTE

A supercapacitor is not included in the kit and must be supplied by the user.

Using the onboard jumper headers, the supercapacitor can configured in the following ways: charging, using (direct connection to 3V3 rail), or disconnected. For more details on these use modes and how to use them, see Section 2.3.
