ABSTRACT:
An electronic device and a method for removing a static electricity thereof are provided. The method for removing a static electricity includes performing a switching operation to transmit a signal output from an interface, which is communicably connected to an external device, to a signal processor or cut off the signal from being transmitted to the signal processor, and based on this switching operation, performing a switching operation to supply a bias power to the signal processor or cut off a supply of power to the signal processor. Accordingly, a static electricity signal is grounded using a switch based on an operation state of the electronic device such that a static electricity shock and static electricity noise can be prevented from affecting the electronic device.
