Abstract
The invention relates to destructive crossovers for explosive logic circu, wherein two crossing paths of explosive material are embedded in a substrate in two separate planes. The first path which detonates across the intersection destroys the intersection so that the second path may detonate only to that point. The invention provides for minimal detonation pressure at the intersection, so as to avert the prior art problem of detonations turning the corner. This is accomplished by placing the paths on different planes.
