RE: Farnell selling 3v dmv and dmh ultra thin products27 May 2025 09:16
From the same report last year that gave the impression of advanced progress but since then even in the February presentation they didn't give much away especially with smt that was being tested by huge EMS companies. Has it passed and succeeded in a design win and waiting patent approval around June time.
Could be dmh as that product and the 3v range are listed for sale with Farnell. These 3 technologies are expected to contribute to this years sales with only a few weeks of FY25 left so hopefully some news will land soon.
On commercialising these technologies, we have made excellent progress in finalising the development of the SMT range and have produced ex-plant samples from our Seven Hills facility for evaluation by our major customers.
The SMT range is break-through technology that, for the first time, allows a supercapacitor to withstand the high temperatures of a re-flow oven. This will enable CAP-XX supercapacitors to be included in electronic devices manufactured by automated assembly lines, with significantly reduced costs. We expect this to enable our SMT device to penetrate many high-volume applications.
We are now in the process of pursuing design wins that would lead to purchase orders and much higher manufacturing volumes.
The second, new product range we have been developing is the DMH range of very thin (0.4 mm) supercapacitors. This provides a form factor suitable for numerous IoT, medical, wearables, telecommunications, drones and other industrial sectors. We are not aware of any competing supercapacitors that are this thin, so believe we have a significant competitive advantage for many potentially high-volume applications. Customer evaluation is underway and initial feedback is encouraging.
Our third significant new product development is the 3V supercapacitor product which we can now produce in volume. 3V supercapacitors offer cost-savings in electronic manufacture as it matches 3V battery systems with a supercapacitor for surge power requirements.
