Abstract

The resonance frequency of an LCR resonance circuit is fand the determination voltage signal is V, when an object is not in the proximity of a sensor electrode. The resonance frequency of the LCR resonance circuit is fand the determination voltage signal is V, when a human body is in proximity of the sensor electrode. The resonance frequency of the LCR resonance circuit is fand the determination voltage signal is V, when water is in the proximity of the sensor electrode. The LCR resonance circuit has the relationship f>f>f. A control unit controls a high-frequency signal Sso as to satisfy the relationship V>V>V, and a human body or water being in the proximity of the sensor electrode is distinguished.
