摘要:
A cold weld is formed in a multilayer-material. A first pin is coupled to a first block. A second pin is coupled to a second block. The multilayer material is disposed between the first pin and the second pin. The first pin opposes the second pin. The multilayer material is held in the XY plane and floats in the Z axis.

An energy storage device includes a first conductor having a first surface and a second surface. The energy storage device also includes a second conductor and a separator assembly that encloses the first conductor and that is disposed between the first and second conductors. The separator assembly also includes a first portion that covers the first surface and a second portion that covers the second surface. The first and second portions are attached to one another, and at least one of the first and second portions includes a first sheet and a second sheet that are attached to one another. The first sheet includes a first material, and the second sheet includes a second material that is different from the first material.

An insulative feedthrough receives an electrical lead therethrough and includes a ferrule having first and second open ends and an interior surface. At least one polymeric guide member is positioned substantially within the first end of the ferrule and has an aperture therethrough for receiving the lead. An insulating material is deposited in the ferrule through the second end for sealingly engaging the lead and the interior surface of the ferrule.

An optical feedthrough assembly is provided that is configured to be disposed through the canister of an implantable medical device. The optical feedthrough assembly comprises a ferrule having an aperture therethrough and an inner surface therethrough. An optical fiber passes through the aperture, and a compression seal stack is disposed within the aperture and around the optical fiber. The compression seal stack sealingly engages the optical fiber and the inner surface.

An insulative feedthrough receives an electrical lead therethrough and includes a ferrule having fist and second open ends and an interior surface. At least one polymeric guide member is positioned substantially within the first end of the ferrule and has an aperture therethrough for receiving the lead. An insulating material is deposited in the ferrule through the second end for sealingly engaging the lead and the interior surface of the ferrule.

A method of testing an electrical component includes coupling the electrical component to at least a first probe, a second probe, and a third probe. The probes are in communication with a test control module. Furthermore, the method includes confirming that the probes are in sufficient electrical connection with the electrical component by allowing the test control module to supply a current through the electrical component via the first probe and the third probe, and simultaneously detecting a potential difference across the electrical component by the second probe and the third probe. Furthermore, the method includes testing a performance characteristic of the electrical component by supplying a redundant signal to the electrical component via at least two of the first probe, the second probe, and the third probe.

Implantable medical devices (IMDs) and their various components, including flat electrolytic capacitors for same, and methods of making and using same, particularly an improved electrolytic capacitor fabricated of an electrode stack assembly comprising a plurality of capacitor layers stacked in registration upon one another. Each capacitor layer comprises a cathode layer having a cathode tab, an anode layer having an anode tab, and a separator layer located between adjacent anode and cathode layers. The anode layer is fabricated of side-by-side stacked anode sheets joined together by at least one malleable member that is fitted into substantially aligned anode sheet bores extending through each sheet and expanded therein to bear against the valve metal core layer of the anode sheets exposed by the bores to effect electrical and mechanical connection of the anode sheets and the anode tab.
