In certain embodiments, a stylus includes one or more electrodes and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying logic for transmitting signals wirelessly to a device through a touch sensor of the device. At least some of the signals are high-voltage signals generated by a relatively large potential difference compared to a voltage within a voltage range of approximately 1 to approximately 3 volts. The stylus includes a stylus tip, and one or more of the one or more electrodes are disposed at the stylus tip.
