Abstract
Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device and a method for sensing a state thereof, and the electronic device may include a processor, and a sensor including a first interrupt pin and a second interrupt pin operatively connected with the processor, and configured to detect a movement of the electronic device, wherein the sensor may be configured to, when detecting a free fall of the electronic device, transmit a first designated signal to the processor using the first interrupt pin, and when detecting an impact state of the electronic device, transmit a second designated signal to the processor using the second interrupt pin. Other various embodiments are also possible.
