Not only are these designs less reliable, they also require additional material and are more costly to produce than Reliaswitch®. In most cases, Reliaswitch requires only one, double-sided circuitry layer, eliminating this problem and resulting in increased reliability, reduced material costs and lower stack-up height. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae9f0f4506fbeec5124e96c/1565647609866-C95BOJLKCF7693KND3UZ/Reliaswitch+Clear+Window.png Membrane Switch Design Guide Reliaswitch® has traces printed on both sides of the substrate, allowing circuitry located above an LED / display window to be connected to the circuitry below the window — without the use of cross-overs or a dual tail design — significantly increasing your reliability and cost-efficiency. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae9f0f4506fbeec5124e96c/1565626812198-1F6X4FCDCEGEPXGUDQUG/LED+backlighting+for+membrane+switch.jpg Membrane Switch Design Guide Reliaswitch® provides LED backlighting, which is embossed over the top of the circuit and provides a 180-degree viewing angle, which is desirable for most medical applications. Compared to single-sided circuits, Reliaswitch offers more room to place LED components. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae9f0f4506fbeec5124e96c/1565372464084-ZAS8X21O5WUQ1Y8K4GFR/Common+Bus+vs.+Matrix+Layout_membrane+switch.png Membrane Switch Design Guide The above image features two examples of membrane switch pinout schematics (Common Bus and Matrix Layout), which are not optimized for reliability or efficiency due to their single-sided design.

Limited to only one side of the substrate, space constraints often force single-sided competitors to use a less reliable dual-circuit design to meet SMT requirements. Reliaswitch enables you to accommodate SMT requirements while keeping your membrane switch more reliable, flexible and thinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae9f0f4506fbeec5124e96c/1565148824887-VW1BFWMRX71IU9OSQ4RU/Reliaswitch+interconnect+examples.jpg Membrane Switch Design Guide Reliatrace has the ability to meet most standard interconnect requirements, with tooling for Nicomatic, crimp, or solder connections that conform to AMP or Berg connecting specifications.
