1. An electronic device, comprising:
a casing, having an outer surface, an inner surface opposite to the outer surface and an accommodating groove penetrating through the outer surface and the inner surface;
a driven component, movably disposed in the accommodating groove;
a magnetic component, connected to the driven component; and
an electromagnetic component, aligned with the magnetic component, and the magnetic component and the electromagnetic component located on the same side of the inner surface, wherein when the electromagnetic component is not powered, the magnetic component and the electromagnetic component are attracted to each other, and the driven component is positioned at a first position, when the electromagnetic component is powered, the magnetic component and the electromagnetic component are repulsed to each other, thereby driving the driven component to move from the first position to a second position,
wherein the magnetic component and the driven component are moved synchronously along a direction perpendicular to the outer surface of the casing, and the electromagnetic component is completely or partially overlapped with the magnetic component when viewed in the direction.
