Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1426992A2] A plurality of fixed contacts and signal lines are provided on a fixed substrate. A movable contact which is closed or opened with the fixed contacts is provided on a movable substrate opposed to the fixed substrate. A film thickness of the fixed contacts is made to be smaller than that of the signal lines so that the movable contact is set in a concave portion constituted by the fixed contacts when the fixed contacts, and the movable contact are closed and the signal lines are linearly connected. <IMAGE>
