Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of an input device with display buttons including a transparent display window and an elastic member for each button, the thickness of the input device with display buttons can be very thick in portable electronic devices that require miniaturization
In addition, in the case of using a touch screen to make the thickness of an input device having display buttons thinner, there is no operational feeling (perception) indicating successful input, and the probability of erroneous input increases

Abstract

Provided are an input device with display buttons and a portable electronic device having the same. The input device with display buttons may include a button frame having at least one button window; a touch interface, which is disposed below the button frame and generates a signal by sensing a user's touch on each of the button windows; a display panel, which is disposed below the touch interface and provides an image corresponding to each of the button windows; and an operation feeling generator generating mechanical vibration in response to the signal input from the touch interface. The portable electronic device may include the input device with display buttons.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments relate to an input device having a display button and a portable electronic device having the input device, and more particularly, to an input device and a display button having a comfortable button touch capable of providing a thin body and having a display function at the same time. A portable electronic device having the input device. Background technique [0002] Generally, an input device having a button is a device that generates a switching signal in response to a user's pressing. When a user presses a button, an input device having a button may provide the user with a predetermined operation feeling (sensation) in order to inform the user that the pressed button has been correctly pressed. In order to provide an operational feel (feel) such as a button being pressed and released, most conventional input devices with buttons include a resilient component, such as a resilient dome of a dome switch. [0003] Recently, input devices h...
