A coordinates input apparatus such as a digitizer has: vibration propagation medium such as a transparent glass plate for allowing a vibration to propagate therethrough; an input pen for applying vibration (50) to the vibration propagation means; vibration detecting means for detecting vibration (51) applied by the input pen; envelope output means for producing an envelope signal (52) representing the envelope of the vibration detected by the vibration detecting means; differentiation means for conducing a differentiation (53) of the envelope signal produced by the envelope output means so as to determine the peak (at time Tg); control means adapted for determining, as the time of arrival of the vibration, a zero-cross point of the vibration (51) detected by the vibration detecting means located in the vicinity of a zero-cross point of the signal (53) from the differentiation means; and computing means for computing the distance between the input pen and the vibration detection means from the time determined by the control means.

Single coat coating systems (22), as well as articles coated with such non-stick coating systems, are provided. The single coat system includes a fluoropolymer copolymer (14a), such as a fluoropolymer terpolymer including tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, and vinylidene fluoride monomers, which fluoropolymer copolymers are referred to collectively as THV. The single coat system exhibits excellent substrate adhesion and release properties, is resistant to separation failure at the interface between the binder (12) and fluoropolymer components (14a), and exhibits excellent adhesion to smooth substrates (16). The single coat system may also include a high level of fillers to provide increased damage resistance without compromising the above benefits.
