Abstract: Provided is an active pen used with electronic equipment including a touch sensor that is of a capacitive system and that includes sensor electrodes, the active pen including a receiving circuit that receives an uplink signal from the electronic equipment, a transmitting circuit that transmits a downlink signal to the electronic equipment, an attendant function circuit that performs an attendant function different from reception of the uplink signal and transmission of the downlink signal, and a controller that controls operation of the receiving circuit, the transmitting circuit, or the attendant function circuit according to a plurality of kinds of operation modes including a normal mode and a low power consumption mode.

Abstract: This connector can be connected to a counterpart connector having a counterpart contact, and is provided with an electric current sensor function. Specifically, the connector is provided with a contact, a protective member composed of an insulating material, a core, and an electric current detection member. The contact extends along the longitudinal direction so as to have a longitudinal part that can be connected to the counterpart contact. The protective member surrounds the contact in the plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction. The core surrounds the protective member in the plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction. The core has a gap. The electric current detection member is at least partially disposed within the gap.
