Abstract
A pulse charge control system is presented in this paper for use as a new charger system. It is a hybrid system of the direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) and electric double layer capacitor (EDLC). It is smaller than the maximum output design. A jump up voltage protection method and an energy increase control method are presented for the advanced pulse charge control. The experimental results when using the energy increase control method are presented to prove the performance of the output power.
