A feedthrough terminal assembly for an active implantable medical device includes
a conductive ferrule conductively coupled to a housing of the medical device, a
feedthrough capacitor conductively coupled to the ferrule, an inductor closely
associated with the capacitor in non-conductive relation, and a conductive terminal
pin extending through the capacitor and the inductor. The terminal pin extends
through the inductor in non-conductive relation and is conductively coupled to
active electrode plates of the capacitor. In one preferred form, the terminal pin
is wound about the inductor. Additionally, the inductor may be maintained in close
association with the capacitor without forming a direct physical attachment therebetween.
