Abstract
A touch sensing device includes a conductor disposed inside a housing and spaced apart from the housing by a predetermined first distance, a touch member integrated with the housing and including an inductor element disposed inside the housing spaced apart from the conductor by a predetermined second distance, an oscillation circuit including the inductor element, and configured to generate an oscillating signal having different frequency change characteristics for each of a touch input and a touch-force input through the touch member, and an operation detection circuit configured to detect one or more of the touch input and the touch-force input in response to the frequency change characteristics of the oscillating signal from the oscillation circuit.
