Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes at least one hinge module providing at least one folding axis, a first housing coupled with the hinge module to rotate around the folding axis, a second housing coupled with the hinge module to rotate around the folding axis, and rotating with respect to the first housing, between a first position at which the second housing is folded, facing the first housing and a second position at which the second housing is unfolded at a specified angle from the first position, a first battery provided in the first housing, a first circuit board including a first arrangement area disposed in parallel to the first battery at least partially along a direction parallel to the folding axis, and a second arrangement area extending from the first arrangement area and disposed between the folding axis and the battery, and at least one flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) extending from the interior of the first housing to the interior of the second housing across the folding axis. Inside the first housing, one end portion of the FPCB is connected to the second arrangement area, between the folding axis and the first battery, and a part…
