Abstract

In one aspect, a method of interconnecting two or more foils of a capacitor, the method comprising connecting together one or more anode conneciton members (206) of one or more anode foils (202) and one or more cathode connection members (306) of one or more cathode foils (302) and electrically isolating the one or more anode foils from the one or more cathode foils. In one aspect, a capacitor having a first anode layer, a second anode layer, a cathode layer between the first anode layer and the second anode layer, a first separator layer between the first anode layer and the cathode layer, a second separator layer between the second anode layer and the cathode layer; and a conductive interconnect between the first anode layer and the second anode layer, the conductive interconnect passing throught a cathode hole in the cathode; wherein the conductive interconnect has a cross section which is smaller that the cathode hole and the conductive interconnect is placed to avoid direct electrical contact withthe cathode layer and wherein the first anode and the second anode are electrically connected through the conductive interconnect.
