    摘要： An implantable medical device has one or more feedthrough/electrode assemblies positioned around an outer periphery of the device. Each of the assemblies includes a ferrule and a feedthrough conductor that extends longitudinally through the ferrule. Each of the assemblies also includes a cover having an insulative body and an electrical contact that is mounted to the plastic insulator. The plastic insulator is positioned over an inner end of the assembly such that the contact is operatively coupled to the feedthrough conductor of the assembly. The cover can be oriented so as to be freely accessible for purposes of electrically connecting circuitry within the implantable medical device to the contact, and in turn, the feedthrough conductor. In turn, the wiring used in connecting the circuitry and the contact can be routed within the implantable medical device as desired.

    摘要： Apparatus and method according to the disclosure relate to minimizing gaps between a substantially planar cardiac-sensing electrode and a shroud member utilizing a so-called interference-fit. For example, a relatively recessed area or aperture formed in an exemplary resin-based shroud member has slightly reduced dimensions relative to the electrode and requires compression forces during assembly (e.g., manually or in an automated process including a press, a tool or other means). The interference-fit promotes a very tight fit (or seal) between the metallic electrode and the resin-based shroud member and, importantly, minimizes gaps. Additionally, discrete interference structures promote fluid tight seals between the electrode and a recess or aperture adapted to receive the electrode.

    摘要： The invention discloses a subcutaneous electrode array or SEA for use in medical devices. The arrangement provides an enhanced capability for detecting and gathering electrical cardiac signals via the array of relatively closely spaced subcutaneous electrodes. Further, switching circuits, signal processors and memory to process electric cardiac signals are implemented to enable a leadless orientation-insensitive SEA scheme for receiving the electrical signal from the heart. The SEA is distributed over the perimeter of the implanted medical device and includes a non-conductive surround shroud of biocompatible material. The surround shroud is placed around the periphery of the case of the implanted medical device. Various configurations of recesses, each of which contain individual electrodes, are implemented to provide an enhanced signal to noise ratio for improved signal quality.

    摘要： A capacitive filtered feedthrough assembly is formed in a solid state manner to employ highly miniaturized conductive paths each filtered by a discoid capacitive filter embedded in a capacitive filter array. A non-conductive, co-fired metal-ceramic substrate is formed from multiple layers that supports one or a plurality of substrate conductive paths and it is brazed to a conductive ferrule, adapted to be welded to a case, using a conductive, corrosion resistant braze material. The metal-ceramic substrate is attached to an internally disposed capacitive filter array that encloses one or a plurality of capacitive filter capacitor active electrodes each coupled to a filter array conductive path and at least one capacitor ground electrode. Each capacitive filter array conductive path is joined with a metal-ceramic conductive path to form a feedthrough conductive path. Bonding pads are attached to the internally disposed ends of each feedthrough conductive path, and corrosion resistant, conductive buttons are attached to and seal the externally disposed ends of each feedthrough conductive path. A plurality of conductive, substrate ground paths are formed extending through the co-fired metal-ceramic substrate between internally and externally facing layer surfaces thereof and electrically isolated from the substrate conductive paths. The capacitor ground electrodes are coupled electrically to the plurality of conductive, substrate ground paths and to the ferrule.

    摘要： A method and a reference circuit for bias current switching are provided for implementing an integrated temperature sensor. A first bias current is generated and constantly applied to a thermal sensing diode. A second bias current is provided to the thermal sensing diode by selectively switching a multiplied current from a current multiplier to the thermal sensing diode or to a load diode. The reference circuit includes a reference current source coupled to current mirror. The current mirror provides a first bias current to a thermal sensing diode. The current mirror is coupled to a current multiplier that provides a multiplied current. A second bias current to the thermal sensing diode includes the first bias current and the multiplied current from the current multiplier. The second bias current to the thermal sensing diode is provided by selectively switching the multiplied current between the thermal sensing diode and a dummy load diode.
