An electronic device includes a rotating body coupled to a bezel part to be rotatable and including a plurality of magnets, a pair of Hall sensors configured to sense a magnetic field caused by the plurality of magnets, a magnetic sensor disposed in an internal space, and a processor configured to calibrate, based on first magnetic field data, second magnetic field data based on a calculated offset value.

Method and device to calibrate magnetic field data

An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may comprise: a housing including a front plate facing forward and a rear plate facing rearward; a display assembly comprising a display visible through at least a portion of the front plate and which includes an upper portion, a lower portion overlapping at least a partial region of the upper assembly and that includes a first opening, and a flexible circuit board overlapping at least a partial region of the lower portion and that includes a second opening corresponding to at least a portion of the first opening; a photosensor module including a sensing unit comprising a sensor corresponding to at least a portion of the second opening, and a plurality of pads arranged to be adjacent to the sensing unit and electrically coupled to the flexible circuit board; and an electrical component and/or mechanical structure arranged between the photosensor module and the rear plate and spaced from the photosensor module at a first distance.

Electronic device including photosensor module

A wearable electronic device, for example a smart watch, has an optical sensor module disposed near a side of the device meant to face the wearer. The device also includes a wireless charging module. The optical sensor and wireless charging modules are at least partially integrated together via a flexible printed circuit board ('FPCB') which is connected to both modules. The wireless charging module surrounds the FPCB of the optical sensor module, thus allowing a reduction in thickness of the wearable device and further allowing simplification in a process of assembly of the device.
