Abstract
The organic electroluminescence module has a touch function of detecting contact or proximity of an operation body. The module has a touch detection circuit unit with a capacitance touch detection circuit section; and a light emitting element drive circuit unit comprising a light emitting element drive circuit section which drives an organic electroluminescence panel. The organic electroluminescence panel has light emitting areas and a pair of at least two plate electrodes that are internally and mutually opposed. The pair of electrodes is connected to the light emitting element drive circuit unit. One of the pair of electrodes is a touch detection electrode. Either one or both of the pair of electrodes is connected to the touch detection circuit unit. A first electrode of the pair of electrodes is divided into portions while a second electrode of the pair of electrodes is a single piece. The same potential is applied at least to the divided portions of the first electrode during a touch detection period.
