A coordinate input device includes sensor electrodes, a top panel having an operation surface operable by an operation body and covering the sensor electrodes, a measurement circuit configured to measure a capacitance at each of detection points, and a calculation circuit to calculate a position of the operation body on the operation surface based on the measured values of the capacitance at the detection points. The calculation circuit, for each of three or more measured values including the maximum value of the measured values obtained at the detection points, calculates a first corrected measured value to reduce differences between the measured values, and calculates the position of the operation body in two-axis directions on the operation surface using the first corrected measured value corresponding to the maximum value and the first corrected measured values corresponding to the measured values adjacent to the maximum value in one of the two-axis directions.
