Re: HP 15C and 15C LE not the same dimensions? Message #9 Posted by Andrés C. Rodríguez (Argentina) on 2 Oct 2011, 8:18 p.m., in response to message #6 by Marcus von Cube, Germany
A capacitor may be designed in so to supply a minimum current, allowing to keep the memory contents for a short time (say, less than a minute) while batteries are changed. That's the way it worked in many old models such as the 25C, 41C, Voyagers, Pioneers, etc. Parallel cells schemes are rather new for HP calcs and, with due respect, not the best solution around.
