Abstract
A method for operating an electronic device with lower power consumption is provided. The electronic device includes a display device and a touch sensor. In the case where the touch sensor senses no touch, the touch sensor is brought into a resting state or operated so as to perform a sensing operation at a reduced drive frequency. Also in the case where the touch sensor constantly senses touches and an image on the display device is not changed, the touch sensor is brought into the resting state or operated so as to perform the sensing operation at a reduced drive frequency.
