Why Using PassThru Technology Can Help Extend an Energy Storage System’s Life

PassThru™ mode is a controller operation that enables a power source to connect to a load directly. PassThru mode is used in buck-boost or boost converters to improve efficiency and electromagnetic compatibility. This article explains the benefits of controllers equipped with PassThru technology vs. other controllers, as well as how PassThru mode can extend the life of an energy storage system and specifically a supercapacitor’s total operating time.
