Jurassic Park and later: the solid state EOS switch
From Jurassic Park on, each solid state flipper has a normally closed EOS switch wired in series with its cabinet button. Power pulse length is still fixed; if a ball knocks a raised flipper back and the EOS closes, the board gives another full-power pulse so the flipper stays up.
