The feedthrough wires can be in their own glass-to-metal seal or, they can be combined into one glass-to-metal seal as long as they are electrically insulated from each other. One embodiment has the anode feedthroughs left unconnected, while in other embodiments; they are joined externally of the capacitor casing. Several interconnect designs are described.Field of SearchFeed throughEncapsulated Significant electrode feature Anode type electrode Aluminum or tantalum Cathode type electrode (e.g., cathode casing) Casing With hermetic seal Significant electrical connection means (e.g., terminals or leads) Anode type electrode Aluminum or tantalum Cathode type electrode Casing With hermetic seal With header, cover, or endseal Significant electrical connection means (e.g., terminals or leads) With terminal ELECTRIC CONDENSER MAKING Solid dielectric type Cardioverting/defibrillating | |
