Abstract: An electronic device comprising a connector including a plurality of contacts and a liquid detection module coupled to at least one contact in the plurality of contacts. The liquid detection module can be configured to generate and apply a time varying voltage or current to the at least one contact over a range of frequencies, measure complex impedance including phase and magnitude at the at least one contact, and determine whether liquid intrusion has occurred on the contacts based on previously measured signatures of phase and magnitude versus frequency.

Abstract: There is provided a wirelessly locatable device (500) configured to send a wireless signal to an electronic device to facilitate localization of the wirelessly locatable device by the electronic device. The wirelessly locatable device (500) comprises a first housing member (502) defining a first exterior surface of the wirelessly locatable device, a second housing member (516) removably coupled to the first housing member and defining a second exterior surface of the wirelessly locatable device, and an antenna assembly (508). The antenna assembly (508) comprises an antenna frame (802) defining a top surface, a peripheral side surface, and a hole through the top surface. The antenna assembly (508) further comprises a first antenna (806, 826) on the antenna frame along the peripheral side surface and configured to communicate with the electronic device using a first wireless protocol, a second antenna (808, 833) on the antenna frame along the peripheral side surface and configured to send a localization signal to the electronic device using a second wireless protocol different than the first wireless protocol, and a third antenna (804, 824) on the antenna frame along the top surface and configured to communicate with the electronic device via a third wireless protocol different than the first and second wireless protocols. The wirelessly locatable device (500) further comprises an audio system (404, 504, 506) positioned at least partially in the hole and configured to produce an audio output.
