Abstract
An electrical device configured to transmit or receive a signal related to an operation element and transmit a data signal using a small number of wirings is realized. An electrical device includes a first terminal and a second terminal to which a pair of signal lines are connected, an operation element connected between the first terminal and the second terminal, and a transmission circuit configured to operate using a voltage between the first terminal and the second terminal as a power source. The second terminal transmits an output signal according to a state of the operation element to the outside, and the transmission circuit superimposes a data signal on the output signal and transmits the data signal from the second terminal to the outside.
