Abstract

A position detection device includes a position detection sensor and selection circuitry. The position detection sensor has first loop electrodes arranged in a first direction and second loop electrodes arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The selection circuitry is coupled to the first loop electrodes of the position detection sensor and, in operation, simultaneously selects two of the first loop electrodes, connects a first terminal of each of the two of the first loop electrodes to a first one of two first common terminals, and connects a second terminal of each of the two of first loop electrodes to a second one of the two first common terminals. The two of the first loop electrodes change sequentially over time from a first two of the plurality of first loop electrodes to a last two of the plurality of first loop electrodes.
