  • Patent number: 11369800
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an EMI feedthrough filter terminal assembly. The EMI feedthrough filter terminal assembly comprises: a feedthrough filter capacitor having a plurality of first electrode layers and a plurality of second electrode layers, a first passageway therethrough having a first termination surface conductively coupling the plurality of first electrode layers, a second termination surface conductively coupling the plurality of second electrode layers; a feedthrough ferrule conductively coupled to the feedthrough filter capacitor via the second termination surface; at least one conductive terminal pin extending through the passageway in conductive relation with the plurality of first electrode layers; an insulator fixed to the feedthrough ferrule for conductively isolating the conductive terminal pin from the feedthrough ferrule; and a laminated insulative layer between the insulator and the feedthrough filter capacitor.
    Type: Grant
