Abstract

Systems and methods for determining the state of health for a capacitor module are provided. In some embodiments, a method for monitoring the health of a capacitor module comprising an array of capacitors is provided. The method may include steps for disabling a charger coupled to an array of capacitors of the capacitor module, determining if the capacitor module is healthy based at least on operating values of the capacitor module, and enabling a write back mode for the memory module if the capacitor module is determined to be healthy.
