Abstract
An implantable medical device includes an enclosure sleeve that includes grade 5 titanium. Within the enclosure sleeve is a circuit board that includes at least a portion of circuitry that provides a pulse generator and a battery that is electrically coupled to the at least the portion of circuitry. A bottom cap is attached to the enclosure sleeve. A connector block module assembly is coupled to the enclosure sleeve. A plurality of lead connections are within the connector block module assembly with the at least the portion of circuity. Feedthrough pins carry stimulation signals of the pulse generator to the lead connections of the connector block module assembly. A ground conductor extends within the enclosure sleeve and is electrically coupled to the circuit board, and a ground pin is electrically coupled to the ground conductor.
