The touch panel driving device includes a reception circuit for respectively receiving, from the pair of reception signal lines, reception signals whose waveforms are changed due to a capacitance change caused by a touch operation and for generating a detection value for detecting the touch operation by comparing the received reception signals, and a plurality of noise filters provided in signal paths from the M number of reception signal lines to the reception circuit for performing a filtering operation of the same filtering characteristics on each of the reception signals supplied to the reception circuit from the pair of reception signal lines.

Abstract: A touch panel driving device, for sequentially performing scanning for selecting a pair of adjacent transmission signal lines and a pair of adjacent reception signal lines on a touch panel, includes a reception circuit configured to receive reception signals whose waveforms are changed by a capacitance change caused by an operation from the pair of reception signal lines of the touch panel and generate a detection value for monitoring a touch panel operation. The reception circuit generates the detection value by comparing levels of the reception signals from the reception signal lines while sequentially switching capacitance values of a measurement capacitance unit connected to one of the reception signal lines. The measurement capacitance unit includes capacitance units each forming a certain capacitance value by parallel connection or series connection of capacitors as a capacitance unit forming one capacitance value used for switching the capacitance value of the measurement capacitance unit.

Abstract: In a Q-tuple anode matrix vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), a plurality of selected pixels are turned on one by one to sequentially emit lights in accordance with a display signal. Each selected pixel is selected from Q anode segments to be turned on to emit lights by turning on a first and a second grid electrode positioned adjacent to each other. Each selected pixel is formed of Q/2 anode segments in total including R anode segments sequentially disposed from a position closest to the first grid electrode and facing the second grid electrode and (Q/2?R) anode segments sequentially disposed from a position closest to the second grid electrode and facing the first grid electrode, R being an integer ranging from 1 to (Q/2?1).

Abstract: In a display for measurement devices for use in displaying a pointer image of a measurement, a movement of the pointer image is smooth and a visual perception of the pointer image is improved. As shown in FIG. 1A, a display segment group S formed of sub pointer image display segment columns is arranged along scales M in a semicircular shape (a fanwise shape). The pointer image P is made of four sub pointer image display segment columns Sx+1 to Sx+4. In case the pointer image P is moved from the position marked by the bold solid line to that represented by a bold dashed line, a new pointer image is made of sub pointer image display segment columns Sx+2 to Sx+5. In other words, the pointer image is moved in a unit of a sub pointer image display segment column.
