Abstract
Various embodiments may provide a pressure sensing electronic device. The electronic device may include a tactile sensor configured to determine an external pressure. The electronic device may also include a memory device electrically coupled to the tactile sensor. The memory device may be configured to switch from a first state to a second state upon the external pressure determined by the tactile sensor exceeding a predetermined threshold when a writing current flows through the tactile sensor and the memory device.
