A method for attaching a capacitor to the feedthrough assembly of a medical device having a terminal pin comprises threading a first washer over the terminal pin, and placing a body of epoxy in contact with the first washer. The capacitor is positioned over the terminal pin such that the first washer and the body of epoxy are between the lower surface of the capacitor and a support surface. The body of epoxy is cured to couple the capacitor to the insulating structure. During curing, the body of epoxy is substantially confined between the upper surface and the lower surface by the ferrule, the insulating structure, the capacitor, and the first washer.
A method for attaching a capacitor to a feedthrough assembly of a medical device, the feedthrough assembly comprising a ferrule configured to be coupled to the medical device and an insulating structure disposed within the ferrule for insulatively guiding at least one terminal pin through the ferrule, the method comprising:
