Notes:
1. Capacitance, Equivalent series resistance (ESR) and Leakage current are measured according to internal specifications.
2. Leakage current at +25 °C after 72 hour charge and hold.
3. Stored energy (Wh) = 0.5 x C x (V² rated - V² min rated) / 3600
4. Peak power (W) = V² rated / (4 x DC ESR)
5. Discharge current for 3 seconds from 3.8 V to 2.5 V
6. Short circuit current is for safety information only. Do not use as operating current.
Testing and verification of product under end application conditions is recommended.
Note: Do not discharge supercapacitors below minimum allowed working voltage.

Part Numbering System
The part numbering system follows this structure:
HSH (Family code) - 0512 (Size reference in mm, e.g., Diameter=5mm, Length=12mm) - 3R8 (Voltage, e.g., 3R8 = 3.8 V) - 30 (Capacitance value, e.g., 30 = 30 x 10⁵ µF or 3.0 F) - 5 (Multiplier, e.g., 10⁵) - R (Standard product).
Example: HSH0512-3R8305-R indicates a 3.0 F, 3.8 V supercapacitor with a 5mm diameter and 12mm length.
Handling and Support
Manual Solder and Cleaning
Manual soldering: Maximum temperature of +350 °C for a maximum of 5 seconds (using a soldering iron).
Cleaning/Washing: No clean soldering is recommended. Do not wash the supercapacitors.
Life Support Policy
Eaton does not authorize the use of any of its products for use in life support devices or systems without the express written approval of an officer of the Company. Life support systems are devices which support or sustain life, and whose failure to perform, when properly used in accordance with instructions for use provided in the labeling, can be reasonably expected to result in significant injury to the user.
