Capacitive sensor includes sensor electrode, sensor circuit that is electrically connected to sensor electrode measures capacitance of sensor electrode, first impedance element, noise detection circuit that is electrically connected to sensor electrode through first impedance element and measures noise, and control circuit that switches between on and off of each of sensor circuit and noise detection circuit. Control circuit causes sensor circuit to measure the capacitance of sensor electrode by turning on sensor circuit and by turning off noise detection circuit and control circuit causes noise detection circuit to measure the noise by turning off sensor circuit and by turning on noise detection circuit.
