ABSTRACT:
An improved filtered header or feedthrough connector is disclosed for retrofitting filtered terminals into an existing electronic circuit. Each of a plurality of terminals is provided with filter sleeves which are soldered thereto. The filtered terminal assemblies are inserted into a header housing in a fixed array. At least one conductive rubber gasket on the housing interconnects the filters to a ground plane. A metal bushing can be mounted on the conductive rubber gasket to make an interconnection with mounting means, such as a bulkhead. The elastomeric ground plane engages the filters in such a manner as to apply a biasing force to the filters without creating such a high force that there would be a possibility of destroying the filters. The header housing also allows for accommodating filters of various sizes as well as for having terminal pins pass straight through without any filtering.
