Low Inductance Capacitor
US Patent:
6278603, Aug 21, 2001
Filed:
Mar 7, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/519796
Inventors:
Zelijko Arbanas - Springfield MA Richard J. Galante - Wakefield MA
Assignee:
Acumentrics Corporation - Westwood MA
International Classification:
H01G 4228, H01G 432
US Classification:
3613061
Abstract:
A capacitor includes a capacitor body containing capacitive conductive plates. The capacitor body has a first end and a second opposing end, such as the opposite ends of a cylindrical body. A conductive shell is disposed around the capacitor body. The conductive shell has a first end conductively connected to a first one of the conductive plates at the first end of the capacitor body. The conductive shell also has flexible conductive members disposed at a second end adjacent to the second end of the capacitor body. The flexible conductive members extend away from the capacitor body so as to be brought into conductive contact with a conductive surface against which the capacitor is to be mounted in use, such as an upper layer of a multi-layer bus. One capacitor mounting arrangement uses the above capacitor with a multi-layer DC bus structure. In another mounting arrangement, a resilient conductive gasket is disposed between the hard edge of a capacitor shell and a surface of a bus structure.
