Abstract
An environmental sensor for an electronic device includes a substrate, a first sensing unit having a first sensor electrode disposed on the substrate, a second sensing unit having a second sensor electrode disposed on the substrate, an insulating layer covering the first sensor electrode, and a cover that is disposed over the first and second sensor electrodes, the cover including at least one hole through which chemical particles pass. The first and second sensing units each sense one of a capacitance-change due to the chemical particles that pass through the hole and then adhere to the insulating layer located on the first sensor electrode and a resistance-change due to the chemical particles that pass through the hole and then adhere to the second sensor electrode.
