Abstract
Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a method for compensating for a pressure value of a force sensor and an electronic device using the same, the electronic device comprising: a touch screen display; a force sensor bonded to a lower portion of the touch screen display; a memory; and a processor electrically connected to the touch screen display, the force sensor, and the memory, wherein the processor is configured to: obtain a pressure value of the touch screen display and a pressure value of the force sensor; measure the correlation between the obtained pressure value of the touch screen display and the pressure value of the force sensor; identify a spacing state between the touch screen display and the force sensor by using the correlation; determine whether the spacing state is of a predetermined distance or less and compensate for the pressure value for determining whether to operate the force sensor by using a predetermined reference value when the spacing state is of the predetermined distance or less, thereby sensing the spacing state in real time when spacing occurs between the touch screen display and the force sensor of the electronic device, and compensating for the pressure value of the force sensor such that user convenience can be improved. In addition to the embodiments disclosed in the present invention, other various embodiments are possible.
