An IS-4 terminal connector assembly includes three terminal electrodes positioned over an inner tubular member such that they are radially offset from one another. Each of the terminal ring electrodes are configured such that they can withstand both tensile and cyclical bending loads with minimal compromise in their outer geometry. Additionally, each of the terminal electrodes is configured such that they have both an inner and outer geometry that facilitates adequate insulation between a select terminal electrode and an adjacent conductor. Additionally, each of the terminal ring electrodes is configured such that they facilitate an external approach to staking a cable conductor.

By way of example, the present subject matter provides a method, including stacking a plurality of substantially planar electrodes into a stack, in alignment, encapsulating the stack by pressing a first beveled edge of a first cup-shaped housing piece against a second beveled edge of a second cup-shaped housing piece, with the first beveled edge of the first cup-shaped housing piece encouraged into substantially coextensive alignment with the second beveled edge of the second cup-shaped housing piece and joining the first beveled edge of the first cup-shaped housing piece to the second beveled edge of the second cup-shaped housing piece.

An electrolytic capacitor is constructed as a stacked structure of alternating anode and cathode plates. A clip is fitted over a peripheral portion of each cathode plate, the clips being welded together to electrically connect the cathode plates in common. The dimensions of the clips are such that the clips take up approximately the same space away from the edges of the cathode plates as the thickness of the anode plate on each side of a cathode plate when the anode and cathode plates are stacked upon one another.

One embodiment of the present subject matter includes a stack of substantially planar electrodes, the stack in alignment and having a stack form factor. Embodiments include a first housing portion including a first beveled edge at least partially defining a first stack aperture adapted to at least partially receive the stack, the first stack opening having a first thickness proximal the beveled edge, and a second thickness away from the first beveled edge and a second housing portion including a second edge defining a second stack aperture adapted to at least partially receive the stack. Embodiments are included wherein the second housing portion is joined to the first housing portion such that the first housing portion and the second housing portion define an interior space which substantially conforms to the stack form factor.
