Abstract: According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include: a processor; and a touch circuit configured to output, to the processor, information associated with a touch on at least one surface of the electronic device. The touch circuit may be configured to: generate first raw data including a first value associated with capacitance for each of multiple channels of the touch circuit; generate a first baseline on the basis of the first raw data; identify whether the first raw data satisfies a designated condition; and identify whether the first baseline is reset, on the basis of whether the raw data satisfies the designated condition.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for controlling a display so as to reduce power consumption in an electronic device having a plurality of processors are provided. The apparatus includes a display and a control unit. The display is configured to display information formed by a first image and a second image. The first image corresponds to a partial region of the information, and the second image corresponds to a background region of the information. The control unit includes a first processor and a second processor. The processor may be configured to transmit the first image to the second processor in response to a request for displaying the information on the display. The second processor may be configured to store the second image in a memory and control the display to display the received first image together with the second image.

Abstract: Electronic devices including touch circuits and method of operating the electronic devices are provided. An electronic device includes a display; a touch circuit configured to detect a touch put on the display; a processor; and a memory. The touch circuit is further configured to acquire touch sensing information representing the sensitivity levels of inputs to respective multiple nodes of the touch circuit, identify information associated with a user's ear touching the electronic device, on the basis of the touch sensing information; and transfer, to the processor, the information associated with the ear touching. The memory stores instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to control the display to an on-state and to control the display to switch the display from the on-state to an off-state based on the information associated with the ear touching, which is obtained from the touch circuit.
