Patent attributes
A touch panel has a plurality of conductors arranged for a position detection area and can detect a position pointed to by an active stylus held by a user and a manual touch by the user holding the active stylus. The touch panel includes: a signal transmission circuit that transmits, by capacitive coupling, a signal to the active stylus that can receive the signal transmitted from the touch panel by capacitive coupling with the touch panel; an active stylus pointing position detection circuit that detects the position pointed to by the active stylus by capacitive coupling with the active stylus; a touch detection circuit that detects the manual touch by the user; and a coupling control circuit that performs coupling control to couple one or more of the plurality of conductors and a ground of the touch panel in accordance with a touch detection result of the touch detection circuit.
