Abstract

An electronic device includes: a display panel having a first area, and a second area having a higher transmittance than that of the first area, the display panel including a display layer, and a sensor layer on the display layer; and an electronic module under the display panel to overlap with the second area. The sensor layer includes: a plurality of first electrodes along a first direction; a plurality of second electrodes along a second direction crossing the first direction; a plurality of third electrodes along the first direction, and overlapping with the plurality of first electrodes; and a plurality of fourth electrodes along the second direction, and overlapping with the plurality of second electrodes. In the second area, a third electrode among the plurality of third electrodes and a fourth electrode among the plurality of fourth electrodes are insulated from each other and cross each other.
