Patent number: 5331555Abstract: An object of the invention is to improve the operability and ease of use of electronic apparatus generally known as electronic notebooks used for storing and displaying textual data and other data entered thereto. The electronic apparatus facilitates effective creation of text having a hierarchical structure. The electronic apparatus enables data search to be performed between a plurality of different modes each controlling specific data without repeatedly entering a search character string. Also, with the electronic apparatus, when entering data identical to data already entered, the data can be entered by a simple key operation using the already entered data.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1991Date of Patent: July 19, 1994Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Katsuhiko Hashimoto, Nobutaka Takahashi

Patent number: 5327163Abstract: A display integrated type position reading apparatus includes a display device driven for display in accordance with a driving signal in synchronization with a predetermined clock signal, and a conductive tablet mounted on a display screen of the display device. In operation, a CPU controls a tablet controller to apply voltage to the tablet. In response to a depression of an arbitrary position on the main surface of the tablet, the CPU reads out the depressed position as a digital signal via an A/D converter. The sampling by the A/D converter relating to reading is carried out at sampling points so as to avoid the mixing of noise, caused by a signal for driving the display unit, into the digital signal, resulting in an improvement in the read out accuracy of the depressed position.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1992Date of Patent: July 5, 1994Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Katsuhiko Hashimoto, Koichi Oda
