  • Patent number: 11456608
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a battery, a charging integrated circuit (IC) configured to control a charging state of the battery, a connector pin for receiving power from an external device, the connector pin including a first connector pin for receiving a high potential voltage from the external device and a second connector pin for receiving a low potential voltage from the external device, a touch sensor, and a controller. The controller receives power from the external device through the connector pin based on the detection of the external device being connected to the connector pin, charges the battery using a high potential voltage, detects a user input through the touch sensor while the battery is charged, and stops the charging of the battery and outputs a current corresponding to state information of the electronic device through the first connector pin based on the detection of the given user input.

  • Patent number: 11159899
    Abstract: An electronic device according to various embodiments includes a housing including an acoustic channel and a nozzle portion having an opening formed therein for connecting the acoustic channel to an outside of the electronic device, and an eartip detachably engaged with the housing through at least a portion of the nozzle portion. The eartip includes a first area, at least a portion of which is formed of an elastic material and comes into contact with an object, and a second area, at least a portion of which is formed of an elastic material and surrounds at least a portion of the nozzle portion. The second area includes a first portion having a hole having a first size and a second portion having a second size larger than the first size, and a protrusion is formed at an end of the second portion in a first direction.
