Abstract:
A fob for a remote keyless entry system includes a printed circuit board (PCB) located within a housing. The PCB includes a surface on which circuitry is printed and components are mounted. A coil is mounted to the surface and provides an antenna for the fob. The coil includes a frame spaced apart from the PCB to provide room for other components on the PCB. Coil mounts extend from the frame and are received by the PCB at coil mount locations. The coil mounts contact the surface of the PCB to form an electrical connection.

Abstract:
An example key fob assembly includes a fob portion and a releasable portion releasably connected to the fob portion. A locking mechanism moves along a curved path between an engaged position and a disengaged position. The disengaged position permits separation of the fob portion from the releasable portion.
