APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAKING REACTION ON DETECTION OF EXPOSURE OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE TO MOISTURE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus, a system and a method, which are arranged for making a reaction on detection of exposure of an electronic device to moisture.SOLUTION: An electronic device comprises: a port for connecting the electronic device to other electronic devices; and a moisture detector configured to detect an electrically conductive liquid in a first port. The moisture detector is configured to maintain a voltage on a first electrical contact of the port and to detect a short circuit between the first electrical contact and a second electrical contact of the port. The moisture detector determines that the electronic device has been exposed to an electrically conductive liquid if a monitor module thereof detects a short circuit. The moisture detector may also put the electronic device into a safe mode if the electronic device is exposed to an electrically conductive liquid.
