Abstract
According to an embodiment of the inventive concept, a pressure sensor package may be disposed in an inner space of an electronic device. The pressure sensor package may include a substrate in which a hole is defined, a pressure sensor disposed on one surface of the substrate to cover the hole and including a membrane, and an insulator disposed on the pressure sensor to cover at least a portion of the membrane. The pressure sensor may be disposed to detect a first pressure of the inner space of the electronic device, which is caused by air flowing through the hole, and a second pressure caused by an external force applied to the electronic device through the insulator.

A pressure sensor package that is disposed in an inner space of an electronic device, comprising:
- a substrate in which a hole is formed;
- a pressure sensor disposed on one surface of the substrate to cover the hole and comprising a membrane;
- and
- an insulator disposed on the pressure sensor to cover at least a portion of the membrane,
- wherein the pressure sensor is disposed to detect a first pressure of the inner space of the electronic device, which is caused by air flowing through the hole, and a second pressure caused by an external force applied to the electronic device through the insulator.
An electronic device that comprises a housing for waterproof, comprising:
- a pressure sensor package configured to detect a first pressure inside the housing and a second pressure caused by an external force applied to the housing;
- and
- a processor configured to receive a detection result of the pressure sensor package.
