1. A method for operating a digitizer with an autonomous asynchronous stylus, the method comprising:
- sampling outputs from a digitizer;
detecting from the outputs at least one pulsed signal transmitted from an autonomous asynchronous stylus at a defined rate;
determining a location of the stylus interaction with respect to the digitizer;
andtracking stylus interaction with the digitizer over subsequent pulsed signals transmitted from the stylus.
