1. An electronic device comprising:
a housing;
a protrusion from a side surface of the housing, the protrusion comprising a first surface facing a first direction and a second surface facing a second direction opposite the first direction;
a first window forming at least a portion of the first surface of the protrusion;
a second window forming at least a portion of the second surface of the protrusion;
a first board disposed inside the housing;
a second board electrically connected to the first board;
a first sensor circuit mounted on a first surface of the second board facing the first direction, disposed in the protrusion, and configured to obtain a first biometric signal through the first window; and
a second sensor circuit mounted on a second surface of the second board facing the second direction, disposed in the protrusion, spaced apart from the second window, and configured to obtain a second biometric signal through the second window,
wherein a type of the first biometric signal is different from a type of the second biometric signal.
