  • Publication number: 20230306922
    Abstract: A display system includes a display device including column signal lines, first row signal lines, second row signal lines, first image elements, and second image elements, and a driver circuit including first drive circuits and second drive circuits, in which each of the first drive circuits, in operation, supplies electric charge to two or more corresponding ones of the first image elements during a first period and extracts the electric charge from the two or more corresponding ones of the first image elements during a second period, and each of the second drive circuits, in operation, supplies electric charge to two or more corresponding ones of the second image elements during a third period, or extracts the electric charge from the two or more corresponding ones of the second image elements during a fourth period.

  • Publication number: 20230305660
    Abstract: A sensor control board in a display apparatus includes a display device and a position detector, the display device including a plurality of image elements each having a first end that receives input of a common potential and a second end that receives input of an individual potential, the image elements being arrayed in a grid pattern, the position detector located either above or below the display device, the position detector detecting a pointed position on the display device, the sensor control board outputting a transmission signal to the position detector. The sensor control board includes a clock generation circuit which, in operation, generates a clock signal, and a phase adjustment circuit which, in operation, adjusts a phase of the clock signal such that the phase is inverted at each predetermined timing and output an adjusted clock signal as the transmission signal to the position detector.

  • Patent number: 11474656
    Abstract: A position detector as one electronic part is configured by clamping and holding a stacking body obtained by stacking a display comprising a resin frame and an LCD part and a position detecting sensor by a back bezel and a front bezel. By using an auxiliary member, an upper surface frame part of the front bezel is kept from covering a part, in a loop coil, that is disposed outside an effective display area and relates to detection of an indicated position at an end part of the effective display area.

  • Patent number: 11068117
    Abstract: A tablet supplies energy to a stylus including a resonant circuit including a coil and a capacitor by using an alternating magnetic field. The tablet includes a sensor coil group including plural sensor coils, a switch connected to the sensor coil group, a receiver that receives a pen signal transmitted by the stylus and provided to the sensor coil group through the switch, a transmitter that generates the alternating magnetic field by supplying a signal to the sensor coil group through the switch, and a control circuit that supplies a transmission signal to the transmitter and receives input of the pen signal from the receiver. The transmitter includes an amplifying circuit that supplies the sensor coil group with a voltage-amplified signal. The control circuit alternately performs a first control operation and a second control operation that control the switch.
