Abstract

A printed circuit board includes a first layer on which a first stationary contact terminal is formed and one or more second layers spaced apart from the first layer by at least one intermediate layer. A portion of the one or more second layers extends into a recess formed by a discontinuity of the intermediate layers. The portion is flexible and has a second terminal which can be brought into contact with the first stationary terminal.
