Design Requirements

A supercap application requires a very high capacitive load to be charged. This example assumes the output capacitor is 5F with a limited sense current at 1.5A. The LM3102 will provide the current to charge the supercap, and the LMP8646 will monitor this current to make sure it does not exceed the desired 1.5A value.
