Patent ID: 10589107

Abstract:
A feedthrough separates a body fluid side from a device side. A passageway is disposed through the feedthrough. A body fluid side leadwire extends from a first end disposed inside the passageway to a second end on the body fluid side. A device side leadwire extends from a first end disposed inside the passageway to a second end on the device side. The body fluid side leadwire is hermetically sealed to the feedthrough body and is not of the same material as the device side leadwire. A circuit board has an active via hole with a second end of the second leadwire residing therein. The circuit board has an active circuit trace that is electrically connectable to electronic circuits housed in an AIMD, and a circuit board ground metallization. An active electrical path extends from the first leadwire to the second leadwire to an MLCC chip capacitor mounted on the circuit board and to the circuit board active circuit trace, and a ground electrical path extends from the MLCC chip capacitor to the circuit board ground metallization and then to the ferrule.
