Abstract

A touch detection apparatus includes a sensor pad to output a signal based on a touch state in response to an alternating voltage in a floating state after being charged, an operational amplifier including a first input connected to an output of the sensor pad and a second input to receive the alternating voltage, a level shift detection unit to detect a touch signal based on a difference between a voltage variation at an output end of the operational amplifier caused by the alternating voltage and a voltage variation at the output end of the operational amplifier caused by occurrence of a touch, and a switching unit including a first switch to control an electric potential between a first input and the output end of the operational amplifier and a second switch to connect or not the sensor pad and the first input of the operational amplifier.
