Abstract
A method of driving an input sensor to detect a proximity of a user includes driving the input sensor in a direct sensing mode, the input sensor including first sensing electrodes and second sensing electrodes insulated from the first sensing electrodes, and upon determining the user is engaged in a call, driving the input sensor in in a first proximity sensing mode by applying a driving signal to each of the first sensing electrodes. when the user has not performed the direct touch, and driving the input sensor in a second proximity sensing mode by applying no driving signal to a first subset of the first sensing electrodes and applying the driving signal to a second other subset of the first sensing electrodes, when the user has performed the direct touch.
