Mobile terminal performing a different operation based on a type of a tap applied to a display and control method thereof
First Claim
1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a display;
a touch sensor; and
a controller configured to;
activate the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with a first period,in response to a first tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display, determine a region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input,in response to a second tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display within a predefined time period from the first tap input, determine if the second tap input is applied within the region,deactivate the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with a second period greater than the first period when the second tap input is applied within the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input, andmaintain the activation of the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with the first period when the second tap input is applied to a spot outside the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input.

Abstract
An electronic device including a display; a touch sensor; and a controller configured to activate the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with a first period; in response to a first tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display, determine a region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input; in response to a second tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display within a predefined time period from the first tap input, determine if the second tap input is applied within the region; deactivate the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with a second period greater than the first period when the second tap input is applied within the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input; and maintain the activation of the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with the first period when the second tap input is applied to a spot outside the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input.

12. An electronic device, comprising:
-
a display; a touch sensor; power; one or more processors; memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for; activating the display and periodically driving the touch sensor with a first period, in response to a first tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display, determining a region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input, in response to a second tap input applied on the touch sensor in state of the activated display within a predefined time period from the first tap input, determining if the second tap input is applied within the region, deactivating the display and periodically drive the touch sensor with a second period greater than the first period when the second tap input is applied within the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input, and maintaining the activation of the display and periodically driving the touch sensor with the first period when the second tap input is applied to a spot outside the region of the display that corresponds to the first tap input. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
