In a medical implantable device having a hermetically sealed, radio
shielded encapsulations containing an RF circuit therein and having an
antenna located outside of the encapsulation, and in a method for
connecting the RF circuit to the antenna, at least one hermetical
feedthrough connection is provided in the form of at least one conductor
passing through a wall portion of the encapsulation in a liquid-tight and
gas-tight manner, with the feedthrough being electrically insulated from
the encapsulation. At least one connector pin is provided on an RF
circuit board, which is resiliently mounted on the RF circuit board. The
RF circuit is mounted in the encapsulation so as to cause the connector
pin to resiliently engage the conductor and to electrically connect the
conductor with the RF circuit board.
