Abstract: Disclosed are a method for controlling an operation of a battery on the basis of the state thereof, and an electronic device for supporting the same. The electronic device includes: a battery connector including multiple terminals; a battery detection circuit configured to detect whether a battery is connected to the battery connector; a short-circuit detection circuit configured to detect whether a battery identification (ID) terminal among the multiple terminals is short to a ground, based at least partly on a level of a voltage measured at the battery ID terminal and a predetermined voltage level; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to: acquire, from the battery detection circuit, a first signal related to whether the battery is connected to the battery connector; determine whether the battery is connected to the battery connector, based at least partly on the first signal; acquire, from the short-circuit detection circuit, a second signal related to whether the battery ID terminal is short-circuited to the ground; based at least in part on the first and second signals, determining whether: the battery is not connected; the battery is properly connected; or the battery is improperly connected; and control an operation of the battery based at least partly on determining whether the battery is not connected, the battery is properly connected, or the battery is improperly connected.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided which includes a housing, a first plate, a second plate, and a side member, a touch screen display that includes a touch panel, the touch screen display located within the housing and exposed through at least a part of the first plate, a sensor within the housing and configured to detect an atmospheric pressure variation, a processor electrically connected with the touch screen display and the sensor, and a memory electrically connected to the processor, the memory stores instructions which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive a touch input caused by pressing a part of the touch screen display by using the touch screen display, monitor the atmospheric pressure variation using the sensor while receiving the touch input, and provide a changed and/or selected function of the touch screen display based on the monitored atmospheric pressure variation and the touch input.
