ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic-induction-type position determination apparatus or digitizer for inputting or digitizing hand-written characters and graphic equipment to electronic equipment is arranged so as to have a reduced number of conductors installed on its interface plate and has a reduced number of complicated control circuits. The apparatus includes an interface plate having conductors installed in the form of a matrix and a control system for supplying two currents to two conductors in the same direction. A pick-up is moveably positioned on the interface plate for picking up two induced voltages induced by magnetic fields generated by the two currents flowing through the two conductors and a detector and processor are arranged to detect a predetermined relationship between the two induced voltages and to derive digital coordinate data based on the detected predetermined relationship.
