Abstract
A delta-sigma modulation circuit is enabled to be used to detect a pen signal. An integrated circuit according to the present disclosure is a sensor controller that detects pen signals transmitted from an active pen. The integrated circuit includes a delta-sigma modulation circuit including a subtractor that subtracts a feedback signal from a received signal input from a sensor, an integrator that integrates an output signal of the subtractor, a quantizer that quantizes an output signal of the integrator, and a digital analog converter that generates the feedback signal based on an output value of the quantizer. The integrated circuit also has a processor that detects a level of the received signal based on an output value of the delta-sigma modulation circuit, and a gain controller that a level of the feedback signal based on the level of the received signal detected by the processor.
