Inside the digitizer, there are loads of electronics, i.e. transistors, etc. The tablet emits magnetic pulses that are picked up by an inductive coil inside the digitizer. Early digitizers used a battery. Nowadays the magnetic pulses are cleverly used not only for position sensing by the pad, but also to power the switches and pressure sensor in the digitizer.

The iPad stylus works as a conductor only. Nothing fancy there.
