ABSTRACT:
A monolithic capacitor array (18) is disclosed which may be suitable for incorporation into a multi-way electrical connector and comprises a dielectric body (20)with a set of through-going cavities (22) for receiving respective connector pins. The cavities are associated with respective capacitors (30, 32) each formed by a first and a second set of capacitor plates (38, 40, 44, 46) interleaved within the dielectric body. The first set of capacitor plates is connectable to ground through a contact (42) at the body's exterior. The second set of capacitor plates is interconnected by metallization of the interior of a connection cavity (62) formed in the dielectric body, the connection-cavity being separately formed form its associated pin-receiving cavity and the metallization therein being contactable from the body's exterior to enable connection of a pin received in the pin-receiving cavity to the second capacitor plates of the associated capacitor.
