  • Publication number: 20230273689
    Abstract: A sensor is provided for detecting a pen signal transmitted from a pen. The sensor includes a touch sensor, flexible printed circuit (FPC) connector terminals, and a detection pattern. The touch sensor has linear electrodes, which form a position detection area and are configured to respectively detect the pen signal. The FPC connector terminals are connected to the linear electrodes, respectively, via routing traces arranged outside the position detection area. The detection pattern is arranged in a region outside the position detection area, near the FPC connector terminals, and is configured to detect the pen signal.
    Type: Application
