Abstract
An electronic device includes a pop-up device configured to be inserted into a main body of the electronic device in an inserted state, including a gas sensor including a sensor block for sensing a gas, and configured to expose the sensor block to an outer portion of the electronic device in a pop-up state; a power supplier arranged on an outer portion of the pop-up device, configured to supply electric power to the gas sensor; and a connection controller configured to control a connection state of the pop-up device, to block supply of electric power to the gas sensor when the pop-up device is in the inserted state and to supply electric power to the gas sensor when the pop-up device is in the pop-up state, including one or more terminals formed on the pop-up device that move together with the pop-up device when the pop-up device moves.
