Hi all,
I'm working on a project where I need to have an electronic component on the PCB board that works like an On/Off magnet. I need the magnetic field to be perpendicular to the PCB board surface. Has anyone ever used an inductor or a choke coil for this type of application? Is there any other component intended for this use?
I can't use a PCB edged coil since I need to have a magnetic field that's a little bit stronger capable of holding a small piece of metal or a small magnet. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
