1. A pen configured to supply an internal digital value of a first number of bits to a sensor device, the pen comprising:
an integrated circuit that acquires a series of the internal digital values,
wherein
the series of the internal digital values include a first internal digital value and a second internal digital value acquired subsequently to the first internal digital value,
the integrated circuit supplies the first internal digital value to the sensor device by controlling transmission of first transmission data including a first standard digital value corresponding to the first internal digital value, and
the integrated circuit supplies the second internal digital value to the sensor device by controlling transmission of second transmission data of a second number of bits different from the first number and corresponding to a relative value between the first internal digital value obtained by restoration from the first standard digital value and the second internal digital value.
