Micro-reed switch with high current carrying capacity and manufacturing method thereof

摘要

A micro-reed switch includes a first magnetic reed and a second magnetic reed. The first magnetic reed includes a first metal electrode and a first non-wettable area. The first metal electrode includes a liquid metal. The second magnetic reed includes a second metal electrode and a second non-wettable area. The first magnetic reed and second magnetic reed is parallel to each other and a gap is defined there between. When a magnetic field is available, the liquid metal and the second metal electrode are engaged with one another by a magnetic force of the magnet.

1. A micro-reed switch comprising:
a first magnetic reed comprising:
a first metal electrode having a liquid metal and being disposed at a leading edge of the first magnetic reed; anda first non-wettable area having a first conductor connected to the liquid metal and being disposed at a trailing edge of the first magnetic reed; and a second magnetic reed parallel to the first magnetic reed and separated from the first magnetic reed, the second magnetic reed comprising:
a second metal electrode corresponding to the first metal electrode and being disposed at a leading edge of the second magnetic reed; anda second non-wettable area being disposed at a trailing edge of the second magnetic reed and comprising a second conductor connected to the second metal electrode such that when there is a magnetic field, the liquid metal and the second metal electrode engage with one another by a magnetic force of the magnet field and when the magnetic field is not available, the liquid metal and the second metal electrode are separated from each other by a resilience of the first magnetic reed and the second magnetic reed.
