| 20090116167 | PASSIVE ELECTRONIC NETWORK COMPONENTS DESIGNED FOR DIRECT BODY FLUID EXPOSURE - An EMI filter capacitor assembly and implantable passive electronic network components utilize biocompatible and non-migratable materials to adapt the electronic components for direct body fluid exposure. The assembly includes a capacitor having first and second sets of electrode plates which are constructed of non-migratable biocompatible material. A conductive hermetic terminal of non-migratable and biocompatible material adjacent to the capacitor is conductively coupled to the second set of electrode plates. One or more conductive terminal pins having at least an outer surface of non-migratable and biocompatible material are conductively coupled to the first set of electrode plates, while extending through the hermetic terminal in non-conductive relation. The terminal pins may be in direct contact with the first set of electrode plates, or in contact with a termination surface of conductive connection material. The termination surface is also constructed of non-migratable and biocompatible materials. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090128986 | HYBRID DISCOIDAL/TUBULAR CAPACITOR - A hybrid capacitor includes a body of dielectric material having spaced-apart first and second surfaces. A first electrode is associated with the first surface. A second electrode is associated with the second surface. One or more third electrodes are transversely disposed within the dielectric body between the first and second electrodes. Either the first or second electrode is not conductively coupled to any electrode transversely extending into the body. The resulting arrangement provides a hybrid capacitor having characteristics of both a tubular capacitor and a discoidal capacitor. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090259265 | ELECTRONIC NETWORK COMPONENTS UTILIZING BIOCOMPATIBLE CONDUCTIVE ADHESIVES FOR DIRECT BODY FLUID EXPOSURE - An implantable passive or active electronic network component or component network is provided which is suitable for prolonged direct body fluid exposure and is attachable to a conductive surface, circuit trace, lead or electrode. The electronic network component or component network includes (1) a non-conductive body of biocompatible and non-migratable material, (2) a conductive termination surface of biocompatible and non-migratable material, associated with the body, and (3) a connection material of biocompatible and non-migratable material, for conductively coupling the termination surface to the conductive surface, circuit trace, lead or electrode. The electronic network component may include a capacitor, a resistor, an inductor, a diode, a transistor, an electronic switch, a MEMs device, or a microchip. A biocompatible and non-migratable adhesive is utilized to conductively couple components of the individual components of the electronic network, such as the conductive surface, circuit trace, lead or electrode. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090288280 | PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING EMI FILTERS UTILIZING COUNTER-BORED CAPACITORS TO FACILITATE SOLDER RE-FLOW - An EMI filtered terminal assembly includes at least one conductive terminal pin, a feedthrough capacitor, and a counter-bore associated with a passageway through the capacitor and the lead wire. Preferably, the feedthrough capacitor having counter-drilled holes on its top side is first bonded to a hermetic insulator. The counter-bore in the capacitor provides greater volume for the electro-mechanical attachment between the capacitor and the lead wire, permitting robotic dispensing of, for example, thermal-setting conductive adhesive. | 11-26-2009 |
