Abstract:
A connecting tail for a switching device, for example a membrane switch, includes a substrate having a plurality of spaced parallel silver conductors formed thereon. To prevent migration of silver between the spaced conductors there are a plurality of parallel notches, one between adjacent silver conductors. At least a portion of the conductors are covered by an adhesive, with the notches extending into the adhesive.
