Conductive Ribbon - 3-Conductor (1 yard)

DEV-10172

Elmwood Electronics has stopped accepting orders. This product might be available at PiShop.ca. Please check this blog post about our recent team merger.

Here we have some conductive ribbon. Essentially, it's a fabric with 3 conductors woven into the ribbon. It measures roughly 0.2" wide and 0.03" thick. You will get a 1 yard (~3 foot long) section of ribbon. It has very little (negligible) resistance to it. The material is 68% tinsel and 32% polyester.

Since it has 3 discrete conductors in it, you can transmit power, ground, and signal with a single ribbon! It's relatively flexible and durable. As long as your iron isn't too hot, it solders easily and makes for a good addition to any wearable electronics project.
