The disclosure describes techniques of reducing or eliminating a
commonality between two modules within the same implantable medical
device. Each module within the implantable medical device provides
therapy to a patient. The commonality between the two modules exists due
to at least one common component shared by the two modules. The
commonality between the two modules may create common-mode interference
and a shunt current. In accordance with this disclosure, various
isolation circuits located at various locations are disclosed to reduce
or eliminate the commonality between the two modules. The reduction or
elimination of the commonality between the two modules may reduce or
eliminate common-mode interference and the shunt current.
