Abstract
In a touch panel system of the present invention, a touch pen is configured of an electronic pen that signals can be input into and output from. A touch panel controller includes a synchronization signal transmission unit that transmits a synchronization signal to the electronic pen during synchronization signal transmission periods immediately before each of a first signal line drive period and a second signal line drive period. The synchronization signal transmission unit transmits the synchronization signal of which the waveform is configured of a Manchester-coded pseudorandom sequence having periodicity to the electronic pen during the synchronization signal transmission period. The electronic pen includes a synchronization signal detecting unit that detects the synchronization signal.
