Abstract
The present invention relates to a sensor controller, an electronic device including the sensor controller, and a control method of the sensor controller. The sensor controller includes a plurality of transmission drivers, a plurality of output signal lines for outputting transmission signals output from the corresponding transmission drivers, to corresponding detection electrodes, and an intermediate potential supply unit including a potential generation circuit that includes a voltage source or a capacitive element separate from the transmission drivers, the intermediate potential supply unit being configured to output a voltage from the potential generation circuit at a timing at which potentials of signal waveforms start to transition from a first potential to a second potential higher than the first potential or from the second potential to the first potential, to thereby supply an intermediate potential between the first potential and the second potential to the output signal lines.
