System including touch IC and external processor, and touch sensor including touch IC

Abstract

A touch sensor includes a sensor electrode group; and a touch integrated circuit coupled to the sensor electrode group for executing touch detection and configured to generate frame data indicative of a detection level of each of two-dimensional positions in the sensor electrode group. The touch integrated circuit is connected to an external processor different from the touch integrated circuit via a first bus. The touch integrated circuit supplies the frame data to the external processor via the first bus. The external processor feeds determination data resulting from performing predetermined processing on the frame data back to the touch integrated circuit. The touch integrated circuit performs an operation based on the determination data.
