Abstract: An electronic device according to various embodiments may include a camera module. An image sensor of the camera module may include a first pixel group configured to output phase difference data of a first direction and a second pixel group configured to output phase difference data of a second direction. The image sensor according to various embodiments may be configured to obtain the phase difference data for two or more directions without increasing the number of analog-to-digital converting operations. In addition to the embodiment described above, various embodiments are possible.

Abstract: An electronic device including an image sensor and a processor may be provided. The image sensor may provide, in a first mode, to the at least one processor, first image data may be obtained by outputting data input to a unit pixel of the image sensor with a first conversion gain, the first image data may have a first number of bits. The image sensor may provide, in a second mode, to the at least one processor, second image data may be obtained by outputting data input to the unit pixel of the image sensor with the first conversion gain and a second conversion gain. The second conversion gain may be lower than the first conversion gain. The second image data may have a second number of bits which may be larger than the first number of bits.
