Selection of a SAB MOSFET device depends on a set of desired voltage vs. current characteristics that closely match the selected nominal bias voltage and
bias currents that provide the best leakage and regulation profile of a supercap load. The V table, where Drain-Gate Source Voltage (V = V ) gives

a range of V

bias voltages as different V
load voltages. At each V

bias voltage, a corresponding Drain-Source ON Current

(I
) is produced by a specific SAB MOSFET, which can be viewed as the amount of current available to compensate for supercap leakage current
DS(ON)
imbalances and results in an Equivalent ON Resistance (R
)across a supercap cell. Selection of a supercap bias voltage with a SAB MOSFET
that corresponds to the maximum supercap leakage current would result in the best possible tradeoff between leakage current balancing and

voltage regulation.
Notes: 1) The SAB MOSFET Drain Source ON Current (I ) is the maximum current available to offset the supercapacitor leakage current.
DS(ON)
2) The Drain-Gate Source Voltage (V =V ) is normally the same as the voltage across the supercapacitor.
