Abstract

Feed-through capacitor of the type for use in filters and the like and including discoidal ceramic capacitors arranged in stacked relationship and electrically connected in series. Series arrangement of the discoidal capacitors prevents shorting through the feed-through capacitor in the event of failure of one of the discoidal capacitors therein and results in substantially improved insertion loss characteristics when compared to feedthrough capacitors having a single discoidal capacitor.
