In an electronic device including a biometric sensor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a light source is put to use in sensing the user's fingerprint information using a biometric sensor positioned in a display activation area, thereby providing better performance and an improved outer appearance.
Abstract:
A board assembly includes: a circuit board; a shield member coupled to the circuit board to face the circuit board; and at least one socket for a storage medium which is mounted on the circuit board. The shield member includes an opening that exposes the entirety of the socket to the outside. The board assembly forms an opening in a dual recess structure to accommodate the socket. Thus, the board assembly may contribute to the reduction of the thickness of an electronic device while being stacked with a battery. Further, the entire socket is exposed to the outside of the shield member, the storage medium may be easily removed.
