1. An electronic device comprising:
a display layer including a plurality of pixels within an active region to display an image and a sensor, each of the plurality of pixels including a pixel driving circuit and a light emitting element, and the sensor including a sensor driving circuit and a plurality of sensing elements;
a sensor layer disposed on the display layer, and including a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes;
a display driving circuit configured to control the pixels and the sensor;
a sensor driving circuit configured to control the sensor layer; and
a main driving circuit configured to control the display driving circuit and the sensor driving unit and to operate in a first mode,
wherein, in the first mode,
the display driving circuit controls the light emitting elements disposed in a first region of the active region to emit a first light and the light emitting elements disposed in a second region of the active region surrounding the first region to not emit any light and operates the sensor to generate a proximity sensing signal,
the display driving circuit receives a second light reflected based on the first light, through the sensing elements disposed in the first region and the second region without considering the sensing elements of the active region that surrounds the second region, and
the main driving circuit determines whether the display layer and the sensor layer are placed in a pocket of a user, based on an amount of the second light and the proximity sensing signal.
