Abstract
Methods for making feedthrough assemblies including a capacitive filter array are disclosed. Methods disclosed include attaching a perimeter wall of the capacitor filter array to an interior wall of a ferrule, depositing a thick film conductive paste within at least one passageway to form a conductive pathway, and heating the ferrule, capacitor filter array and the thick film conductive paste to convert the paste to a relatively solid material.
