The Neural supercharger is a misc building added by the Ideology DLC. It allows pawns to supercharge their brain once per day, at the cost of consuming power and the pawn consuming extra food.
Acquisition
A Neural Supercharger can be built with 
50 and 4 after unlocking the Neural Supercharger research. A Neural Supercharger must be built by a colonist with a Transhumanist Ideoligion
Summary
Once connected to power, the neural supercharger will begin to charge. It needs to be charged for 60,000 ticks (16.67 mins) or 24 in-game hours. After being charged, a colonist can use the device, granting them +10% Consciousness, +20% Hunger Rate Factor, and +25% Global Learning Factor
Analysis
In colonies with plenty of food and a surplus of power, the supercharger is an easy way to increase the efficiency of a pawn, allowing them to build and craft more than normal. For colonies without the Transhumanist meme, a person who follows an ideoligion with the meme can be recruited and can build it. It could be a decent way to treat brain-damaged pawns before you researched bioregeneration
