Abstract
A reed relay is constructed by first depositing a layer of an electrically conductive material substantially over an encapsulated reed switch. Terminals are laser welded to the conductive layer and a laser beam is used to cut a continuous pitch spiral from the conductive layer to simulate a conventional control winding.
Claims5
