Abstract

Examples relate to a compressible housing. An electronic switch may include a circuit board. A first conductive surface may be coupled to the circuit board and a second conductive surface may be located proximate to the first conductive surface. A compressible spacer may be located between the first conductive surface and the second conductive surface to space the first conductive surface away from the second conductive surface. Further, a compressible housing may deform when under compression and may cause, via deformation of the compressible spacer, the first conductive surface to contact the second conductive surface.
