Benefits of technology

[0008]Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a handheld electronic apparatus which can effectively increase the performance of the proximity / light sensor.
[0015]In view of the foregoing, in the present invention, the proximity / light sensor and the touch controller are commonly disposed in the upper base module. As such, the number of elements necessary for the proximity / light sensor can be reduced, and the diameter of the opening necessary for the proximity / light sensor can also be reduced, which results in an improved appearance of the handheld electronic apparatus. In addition, more importantly, because the proximity / light sensor is disposed in the upper base module, inaccurate calibration of the proximity / light sensor due to the error caused by the assembly of the handheld electronic apparatus can be effectively avoided, which can therefore increase the calibration accuracy of the proximity / light sensor.

Problems solved by technology

With such a construction, the error generated by assembly of the handheld mobile phone 10 causes the detection of the proximity / light sensor 13 to be inaccurate.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a handheld electronic apparatus 20 according to one embodiment of the present invention. The handheld electronic apparatus 20 includes an upper base module 22 and a lower base module 21. A proximity / light sensor 231, a touch controller 232 and a touch sensor 233 are disposed in the upper base module 22, and a printed circuit board 25 is disposed in the lower base module 21. In addition, the upper base module 22 correspondingly form an opening 24 above the proximity / light sensor 231, such that the proximity / light sensor 231 can detect whether there is an external object approaching a surface of the upper base module 22 of the handheld electronic apparatus 20. In addition, the printed circuit board 25 is connected to the proximity / light sensor 231 and touch sensor 232 by a flexible circuit board 23.

[0023]It is noted that, because the proximity / light sensor 231 is disposed in the upper base module 22, the air gap between the proximity / light sen...

Abstract

A handheld electronic apparatus including an upper base module is provided. The upper base module includes a proximity / light sensor and a touch controller. The proximity / light sensor detects a distance between the proximity / light detector and an external object according to a light. The touch controller is coupled to the proximity / light detector for controlling a touch control action on a touch sensor of the handheld electronic apparatus.
