Abstract
Disclosed is an electronic device including a housing including a transparent cover including a first region and a second region adjacent to the first region, a touchscreen display interposed between the first region and a second surface of the housing and exposed through the first region, an opaque layer interposed between the second region of the transparent cover and the second surface and exposed through the second region, a fingerprint sensor interposed between the opaque layer and the second surface, and a pressure sensor interposed between the fingerprint sensor and the second surface and sensing a pressure of an external object against the opaque layer. The pressure sensor includes a first electrode substantially in parallel with the opaque layer, a second electrode spaced from the first electrode layer and extending substantially in parallel in the second direction, and a dielectric layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode.
