Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 21:
22. An electronic device, comprising:
an input sensor that includes a plurality of sensor units, wherein each sensor unit includes a plurality of first sensing electrodes that extend in a first direction and a plurality of second sensing electrodes that extend in a second direction that crosses the first direction;
a heat generating module disposed on the input sensor; and
a temperature sensor disposed in a same layer as the input sensor, wherein the temperature sensor measures a temperature of each of the plurality of sensor units,
wherein the heat generating module includes:
a heat generating electrode disposed in a same layer as the first sensing electrodes and the second sensing electrodes; and
a plurality of heat generating devices disposed on the heat generating electrode and the second sensing electrodes that electrically connect the heat generating electrode to the second sensing electrodes,
wherein the heat generating module selectively drives heat generating devices disposed in some sensor units of the plurality of sensor units based on the temperature of each sensor unit.
