Abstract: In one embodiment, an ICD is provided which includes a case having a connector block and a conductor post integrally formed with the connector block and extending through a dielectric feedthrough extending through the case. A capacitor is located within the dielectric. In some embodiments, the conductor post is a straight conductor post extending from a side of the connector block facing the feedthrough directly toward the feedthrough. The conductor post and the connector block may be formed of the same material, such as titanium. In some embodiments, a plurality of straight conductor posts and connector blocks are integrally formed. In some embodiments, the dielectric may be a single matrix dielectric, such that each of the straight conductor posts extends through the single matrix dielectric. In other embodiments, each of the straight conductor posts extends through a separate dielectric portion.
