Multi-folded printed wiring construction for an implantable medical device

摘要

A printed circuit assembly for use in an implantable medical device comprises a plurality of panels having active and passive circuit components on one major surface thereof, the plurality of panels being interconnected with flexible flat cable segments allowing the assembly to be folded so as to place the individual panels carrying the circuit components in a stacked relationship. By providing conductive layers on predetermined surfaces of the panels, shielding is provided to inhibit noise generating circuitry from contaminating wanted signals passing between the components and the plural panels.
