Abstract
A digitizer device with anti-noise and status display having a hardware circuit controlled by a software program to eliminate outside noises. The system includes a cursor control mouse or stylus which emits an oscillating signal at several hundred KHz to induce a X-Y grid, an anti-noise circuit which eliminates outside noises from the induced signal, an ADC converter which converts the induced signal into a digital signal, a microcontroller unit which calculates the induced signal into corresponding X-Y axis coordinate value, and a display which shows the current status of the digitizer.
