Abstract
A displacement detecting device includes a power supply line made of a conductor on a substrate, an earth line made of a conductor on the substrate, a plurality of output lines made of a conductor on the substrate, a resistance formed between the power supply line and the earth line on the substrate, and a brush sliding on the resistance and at least one of the output lines electrically connecting between the resistance and at least one of the output lines, the displacement detecting device generating the output signal from the output lines based on the position of the brush, wherein one of the power supply line and the earth line is disposed between the output lines.
