1. An electronic device, comprising:

  • a display;

    a force measurement layer overlapping the display; and

    processing circuitry configured to;

    measure changes in a capacitance associated with a portion of the force measurement layer that occur in response to a touch input to the display;

    in response to the changes in the capacitance of the force measurement layer, use the changes in the capacitance to determine a magnitude of force of the touch input; and

    in response to the changes in the capacitance of the force measurement layer, use the changes in the capacitance to determine a location of the touch input.
