Abstract

See full text

A magnetically actuated membrane switch shiftable between a rest or unmagnetized state, and an activated or magnetized state in the presence of a magnetic field. The membrane switch generally includes first and second conductive traces shiftable between a closed position wherein the conductive traces are electrically connected to make a circuit, and an open position wherein the conductive traces are electrically isolate to break a circuit. The membrane switch further includes a magnetic material that is activated by a magnetic field, thereby effecting a switching operation from a rest position to an activated position, and vice versa.
