Abstract
A method of managing the charge stored by a series arrangement of capacitor stages, each stage including a single capacitor or a plurality of capacitors in parallel, involves supplying each capacitor stage with charge current via a common charging terminal; separately measuring a stored potential of each capacitor stage in the series arrangement; selectively removing a controlled amount of charge from each of the capacitor stages individually) while the series arrangement is receiving the charge current from the common charging terminal; and maintaining each capacitor stage at a substantially equal stored potential.
