Abstract
A feedthrough filter capacitor assembly for an implantable medical device is provided. The assembly includes a conductive lead, a conductive tube coaxial with and insulated from at least a portion of the lead, a conductive substrate through which the lead and tube pass in non-conductive relation therewith, and a filter capacitor associated with each of the lead and tube. The coaxial design of the filter capacitor assembly increases the number of lead connections while minimizing the footprint of the existing feedthrough layout.
