1. A touch panel controller which obtains, with a change in K electrostatic capacitances which are respectively formed between a sense line and K drive lines (K is an integer of 2 or more) when an object to be detected touches a touch panel having the electrostatic capacitances, a touched position of the object to be detected:

  • comprisinga driving unit which drives the drive lines and causes a linear sum signal based on charges accumulated in the respective electrostatic capacitances to be output from the sense line; and

    a correction unit which corrects influence on the linear sum signal by a parasitic capacitance which exists in the sense line,the driving unit driving the K drive lines in parallel by K code sequences having a sequence length of N (N is an integer), which correspond to the K drive lines, and causing N linear sum signals to be output from the sense line,the touch panel controller further comprising;

    an inner product computation unit which estimates values of the K electrostatic capacitances by computation of inner products of the N linear sum signals output from the sense line and the K code sequences having the sequence length of N,the correction unit adding a value, which is obtained by adding weight to a signal based on a value obtained by adding the N linear sum signals, to the values of the K electrostatic capacitances estimated b the inner product computation unit to thereby correct the values of the electrostatic capacitances.
