2. Description of the Related Art A conventional coordinate input device will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a main part of a conventional coordinate input device using a resistive layer. The transparent and flexible upper substrate 21 made of polyethylene terephthalate or the like and the transparent glassy lower substrate are shown. Resistive layers 23 and 24 are formed on the surface facing the substrate 22 by printing or the like, and a plurality of insulating dot spacers 25 are provided between the resistive layers 23 and 24 so that a predetermined interval is provided between the resistive layers 23 and 24. Separated. An X-axis electrode is provided on two opposing sides of one end of the resistance layer 23, and a Y-axis electrode orthogonal to the X-axis is provided on an end of the other resistance layer 24. Then, the upper surface of the flexible upper substrate 21 is pressed by the input pen 26, and the resistance layer 23 of the upper substrate 21 and the lower substrate 2 are pressed.
The second contact layer is in contact with the second resistance layer 24, and the contact position is electrically detected. However, the contact position is detected by a processing circuit (not shown) in which a voltage is alternately applied to the upper and lower electrodes and the electrodes. The voltage is applied in a divided manner, and the voltage is detected from the electrode of the resistive layer to which the voltage is not applied, and the position in each direction is detected.

In this type of voltage division type coordinate input device, it is desired that the resistance layers 23 and 24 have high resistance and good transmittance (transparency). Since it is difficult to obtain a material satisfying both the resistance and the high transmittance, the material has been selected according to the purpose. For example, when importance is placed on high resistance, SnO2 or the like is used, and when importance is placed on high transmittance, ITO (indium oxide) or the like is used. In this case, the thicknesses of the resistance layers 23 and 24 are approximately 250 angstroms when using SnO2, and approximately 100 angstroms when using ITO. As a result, the sheet resistance of the resistance layers 23 and 24 is 1200 ohms when SnO2 is used,
Almost 800 ohms was obtained when O was used.

However, recently, in this type of coordinate input device, there is an increasing demand for power saving, and for that purpose, the resistance layers 23 and 24 are required.
When the thickness of the resistive layer is reduced, the sheet resistance of the resistive layer can be increased, and the transparency can be increased. There is a problem that the variation in thickness depending on the position greatly affects the variation in the resistance value, making it impossible to detect an accurate voltage with respect to the input position.
In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a coordinate input device capable of increasing the resistance between electrodes by using ITO having a low sheet resistance but having a high transmittance, thereby saving power.
