I like that. I'm going to experiment with some conductor atop hard wax, using a separate current path to melt the wax and break the connection.
I'm also considering a conductive membrane that can be pierced to sever the connection.
Hi, Danger.
My thought is for automating some small chemical tests, perhaps 6 or so at time. An ideal solution (pardon the pun) is the size of a playing card, give or take. Smaller is better; it needs to fit in one's hand.
The tests would be mounted on a removable, disposable tray. The...
Thanks for the reply.
I like your generalization about something conductive that gets broken. I'll ponder on that and see what other possibilities present.
I'd also thought about a latching relay. Do you know if they exist in small and disposably cheap (less than $1) varieties? I hadn't heard...
Hey all. I'm new here, so greetings.
Is there a component that provides a single bit of non-volatile memory? I'm looking for a way to flag an array of removable, disposable items as being new or spent. The value only needs to be set once (so something like an intentionally blown fuse would...
