Abstract

An X-axis counter (101) and a Y-axis counter (102) detect velocities of the movement of a mouse in X-axis and Y-axis directions, respectively. A comparator (103) detects which of the velocities of the movement of the mouse in the X-axis and Y-axis directions is higher. An X-axis displacement amount correction data ROM (106) and a Y-axis displacement amount correction data ROM (107) correct a detection result by the X-axis counter (101) and a detection result by the Y-axis counter (102) with the same correction rate based upon detection results by the comparator (103) to output displacements in the X-axis and Y-axis directions.
