  • Electronic device and method for preventing corrosion to connector
    Patent number: 10838894
    Abstract: An electronic device and method for communicating with an external electronic device that is connected via a connector of the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a connector including a first pin and a second pin, a communication interface connected with the connector, and at least one processor electrically connected with the communication interface, wherein the at least one processor may be configured to apply a first current to the first pin, determine whether liquid is introduced into the connector using the second pin, and if the liquid is introduced into the connector, apply a second current smaller than the first current to the first pin.
    Type: Grant
