Do they make very small mechanical relays(for switching very small currents and voltages) that also latch?
Essentially I need a way to switch analog audio signals using a "non-envasive" method... which means no semi-conductors(theres a reason but don't bother asking... just assume its impossible and don't try to give reasons why it should matter cause I already know them).
Obviously the coil is the issue but since the currents and voltages are very low I assume that the conductor for the switch can be small also and therefore one doesn't need such a large coil... or maybe theres some other mechanism for switching that could be used...
What I want is for the switch to latch in the on or off state and need any power to hold that state. I believe this could be accomplished with springs or some other method of producing just enough friction to hold the switch in place.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Jon
