Original Abstract Submitted
A sensor panel includes a detection area and is coupleable to an integrated circuit (IC) for detecting a position of an active stylus in the detection area. The sensor panel includes a plurality of first electrodes which are elongated and extending along a first direction in the detection area, wherein the plurality of first electrodes are arrayed along a second direction that is transverse to the first direction; a plurality of first routing traces associated respectively with the first electrodes and connected respectively to the first electrodes; and a plurality of first terminals associated respectively with the first routing traces and connecting the first routing traces to the IC. The first routing traces include extension lines formed in an area farther distanced from the first terminals along the second direction, than locations of junctions between the first routing traces and the first electrodes relative to the first terminals.
