ABSTRACT:
An implantable battery and device incorporating an internal fuse is disclosed. The internal fuse is incorporated into the implantable battery. Upon a malfunction within the device or the battery causing a greater than within specification current, the fuse blows. The blowing of the fuse effectively shuts off the battery, and protects it from overheating. In various embodiments, the fuse is a fusible link, or a thin metal or a material neck-down portion of the lithium or the silver vanadium oxide carrier which is unable to carry more than within specification current.
