    Abstract: Disclosed is an electronic device including a housing including a transparent cover including a first region and a second region adjacent to the first region, a touchscreen display interposed between the first region and a second surface of the housing and exposed through the first region, an opaque layer interposed between the second region of the transparent cover and the second surface and exposed through the second region, a fingerprint sensor interposed between the opaque layer and the second surface, and a pressure sensor interposed between the fingerprint sensor and the second surface and sensing a pressure of an external object against the opaque layer. The pressure sensor includes a first electrode substantially in parallel with the opaque layer, a second electrode spaced from the first electrode layer and extending substantially in parallel in the second direction, and a dielectric layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode.

    Abstract: An electronic device includes a cover glass, a touch sensor disposed under the cover glass and sensing proximity of or contact by an external object, a touch integrated circuit (IC) electrically connected to the touch sensor, a fingerprint sensor disposed under the cover glass adjacent to the touch sensor, including an active area for sensing a biometric pattern of the external object and an inactive area surrounding a periphery of the active area, a fingerprint IC electrically connected to the fingerprint sensor, and a processor electrically connected to the touch IC and the fingerprint IC. The processor is configured, if an input by the external object is sensed by both the touch sensor and the fingerprint sensor, to calculate coordinates of the input based on at least part of data sensed by the touch sensor and data sensed by the fingerprint sensor.
