Abstract: Disclosed is a force sensor. More particularly, the force sensor includes a first permanent magnet layer; a magnetic tunnel junction disposed on the first permanent magnet layer and configured to have a preset resistance value; and a second permanent magnet layer disposed to be spaced apart from the magnetic tunnel junction, wherein the second permanent magnet layer moves in a direction of the first permanent magnet layer when pressure is applied from outside, the preset resistance value of the magnetic tunnel junction is changed when a magnetic field strength formed between the first permanent magnet layer and the second permanent magnet layer becomes a preset strength or more according to movement of the second permanent magnet layer, and the force sensor senses the pressure based on a change in the preset resistance value.

Abstract: An electronic device may include an optical sensor configured to emit a reference light to a reference object and detect the reference light reflected from the reference object during calibration, and emit a measurement light to a target object and detect the measurement light reflected from the target object during a measurement; and a processor configured to perform the calibration of the optical sensor while the electronic device is disposed to oppose or in contact with the reference object by controlling the optical sensor to emit and detect the reference light, and estimate bio-information based on a light quantity of the measurement light that is reflected from the target object by the optical sensor, and a light quantity of the reference light reflected from the reference object.
