ABSTRACT:
An improved capacitor is provided particularly for use in electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter applications, for example, in an implantable medical device such as a heart pacemaker or defibrillator, to accommodate relatively high pulse currents. The capacitor comprises a plurality of active and ground electrode plates interleaved and embedded within a dielectric casing of ceramic or the like with each active and ground plate being defined by a closely spaced pair of conductive plate elements which significantly increase the total area of each electrode plate, and thereby correspondingly increase the current handling capacity of the capacitor.
