ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for making electrical connection to a ceramic capacitor so that electrical stress concentrations at the edge of each capacitor electrode are minimized. The apparatus includes a conductive elastomer pad which is larger than the electrode and a conductive body which presses the pad against the electrode. This pressing slightly deforms the pad over, and into good electrical and mechanical contact with, the edge of the electrode to minimize electrical stress thereat. Preferably, the conductive body is as large as the electrode. The conductive body may be an adjacent capacitor; in this way an electrical stress-free stack of capacitors may be formed and used to construct a device such as a voltage divider.
