## **DISCHARGE CHARACTERISTICS** 

Backup time of 196 DLC series capacitors depends on minimum memory holding voltage and discharge current (corresponding with the current consumption of the load). For minimum backup times of standard and vertical miniaturized series see Figures 8 and 9 (charging time ≥ 24 h).

Figure 10 shows the backup time when a 196 DLC capacitor is discharged by a constant resistance (charging time ≥ 24 h). 

The horizontal axis shows the initial value of discharge current if 5 V is connected to the capacitor via a fixed series resistor. 

**Example: 1 μA corresponds to 5 M** Ω **and 0.1 μA corresponds to 50 M** Ω 

The vertical axis shows that period of time during which the voltage drops from 5 V to 2 V.
