Abstract
Capacitance distribution on a touch panel is detected with a simple configuration. A drive switch element between each of electrodes and a corresponding drive line is made to turn on and the drive line is driven on the basis of a code sequence. A sense switch element between each of the electrodes and a corresponding sense line is made to turn on and a linear sum signal of each of the electrodes is read along the sense line.
