Abstract

See full text

A switch device may comprise a micro-relay disposed between a first terminal and a second terminal. The micro-relay may be configured to selectively electrically couple the first terminal to the second terminal. The switch device may further comprise a bypass circuit configured to selectively divert at least a portion of electrical current flowing from the first terminal to the micro-relay, and direct the diverted electrical current to the second terminal. The switch device may further comprise an energy harvesting circuit configured to (i) withdraw a portion of energy flowing into the switch device, (ii) store the portion of energy in an energy storage device, and (iii) supplying the energy stored in the energy storage device to one or more components within the switch device.
