Abstract: A data input device for an electronic device includes: a operation section having a plurality of capacitive touch sensors to detect a input operation; and a control circuit section that outputs output information corresponding to detected information of the input operation input from the operation section to the electronic device when it is determined that the input operation is performed, wherein the control circuit section is configured to configure arbitrarily a detection sensitivity of the touch sensor before determining whether the input operation is performed, wherein the control circuit section determines whether the input operation is performed in response to a magnitude of an input value of the detected information, based on the configured detection sensitivity, wherein, when it is determined that the input operation is performed, the control circuit section updates the detection sensitivity configured for the touch sensors based on the magnitude of the input value.

Abstract: A data input device includes: an operation section including an electrostatic capacitance type touch sensor; and a control circuit section which determines if a data input operation is true or false and sends an output data corresponding to a sensed data only when the data input operation is determined as true. When one or more of the sensed data are entered into the control circuit section, a coordinate is identified which determines the data input operation as true based on invalidation determination region information previously prepared for each of coordinates corresponding to the sensed data, wherein while the sensed data for the coordinate indentified is entered, the data input operation, which is implemented to a coordinate other than the identified coordinate to determine the data input operation as true among a group aggregate of the coordinates corresponding to the sensed data within an invalidation determination region, is determined as false.
