Abstract
A flash memory in a memory (9) connected to a baseband chip (3) stores related information on an image/sound in a telephone mode (contrast information, screen luminance information, and sound volume information in the telephone mode), and related information on an image/sound in a television-viewing mode (contrast information, screen luminance information, and sound volume information in the television-viewing mode). In the telephone mode, a display device (6) and a speaker unit (7) are driven based on the related information on the image/sound in the telephone mode. In the television-viewing mode, the display device (6) and the speaker unit (7) are driven based on the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode.

When it is determined that the event is a depressing of themenu key 81, thebaseband chip 3 displays the main menu on thedisplay device 6. - The
baseband chip 3 determines a key code generated when each key of theinput unit 8 is operated. When the key code is a key code generated when the upper end of the cross key 82 is depressed (key code of an upper direction key), for example, thebaseband chip 3 moves the cursor on the menu screen in the upper direction, and when the key code is a key code generated when the center portion of the cross key 82 (key code of an OK key) is depressed, thebaseband chip 3 proceeds to execute the content of an item at the cursor. When the item is “television-viewing”, thebaseband chip 3 activates theapplication processor 5, and informs theapplication processor 5 of a starting command of the television-viewing function. According to this command, theapplication processor 5 starts the television-viewing process. - In addition, when informing of the above command, the
baseband chip 3 reads out from thememory 9 the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode and applies the related information to theapplication processor 5. Theapplication processor 5 writes the related information into the memory 10 (DRAM), and performs the settings for the driver of thedisplay device 6 and thespeaker unit 7 based on the related information. The above driver performs the setting for brightness (supplied power) of the backlight, for example, based on the screen luminance information, which is the related information, and thespeaker unit 7 performs the amplification factor setting. Subsequently, theapplication processor 5 applies the video data received from thetuner 4 to the driver of thedisplay device 6, and applies the received audio data to thespeaker unit 7. - In the television-viewing mode, up and down direction keys on the cross key 81 should function as channel up/down keys, and left and right keys should function as sound volume up/down keys, for example. The
baseband chip 3 transfers the input key code to theapplication processor 5. Theapplication processor 5 determines the request based on the transferred key code, and performs processes of the channel up/down and the sound volume up/down. Theapplication processor 5 writes a set value changed by this up/down process into the memory 10 (DRAM), when the sound volume up/down process is performed. Theapplication processor 5 sends the changed set value to thebaseband chip 3 at each time, or sends a final set value when the television-viewing mode is terminated. Thebaseband chip 3 stores (rewrites) the received changed or final set value as a new set value in thememory 9. - In addition, in this embodiment, when the user continues depressing a certain key when viewing television, the
baseband chip 3 determines this continued depression of the certain key, and applies this depression information of the certain key to theapplication processor 5. When the depression information indicates a contrast setting, theapplication processor 5 generates an image in which the present contrast value is overlapped (superimposed) on a received program screen. Furthermore, when the key code of the cross key 82 is transmitted to theapplication processor 5 via thebaseband chip 3, theapplication processor 5 changes the set value for the contrast based on the key code. Theapplication processor 5 writes a changed set value into the memory 10 (DRAM) when the set value for the contrast is changed. Theapplication processor 5 sends the changed set value to thebaseband chip 3 at each time, or sends a final set value when the television-viewing mode is terminated. Thebaseband chip 3 stores (rewrites) the received changed or final set value as a new set value in thememory 9. - The
baseband chip 3 outputs a preset ringtone from thespeaker unit 7, when there is the incoming call in the telephone mode (standby state). The sound volume is based on the related information on the image/sound in the telephone mode stored in thememory 9. In addition, if a vibration is set, a vibrator not shown is driven when the incoming call arrives. On the other hand, thebaseband chip 3 performs a process based on the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode stored in thememory 9, when there is the incoming call in the television-viewing mode. When the related information indicates “there is no ringtone”, the ringtone is not output from thespeaker unit 7. Or, when the related information indicates “there is the ringtone”, thebaseband chip 3 changes over the speaker unit to its own side, and drives thespeaker unit 7 based on ringtone volume information in the television-viewing mode. The ringtone volume information may be set by the user so that the volume of the ringtone is lower than that of the ringtone in the telephone mode. - When the standby screen of the telephone mode is displayed, the
baseband chip 3 drives thedisplay device 6 at a high luminance level, and at the same time, starts counting a timer and drives thedisplay device 6 at a low luminance level with passage of a predetermined time period. Information on the predetermined time period is based on the related information on the image/sound in the telephone mode stored in thememory 9. On the other hand, when thebaseband chip 3 allows theapplication processor 5 to perform the television-viewing process, and there is the information on the predetermined time period as the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode, this information is sent to theapplication processor 5. Thereby, the standby screen in the telephone mode is changed to a low luminance display in about five seconds, and a received-program screen in the television-viewing mode is changed to a low luminance display in 30 minutes. Luminance information for displaying at a low luminance level may be stored as the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode. Moreover, when there is no information on the predetermined time period as the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode, the information on the predetermined time period is not sent to theapplication processor 5, thereby allowing thedisplay device 6 to maintain a certain luminance without a time restriction. - In addition, although the process is shared by the CPU of the
baseband chip 3 and the CPU of theapplication processor 5, a single CPU alone may execute both processes of the telephone and television-viewing modes. Of course, there are other methods of sharing the process besides the example described above. Furthermore, although the related information on the image/sound in the television-viewing mode is stored in the memory 9 (nonvolatile memory) connected to thebaseband chip 3 in the above embodiment, the related information may be stored in the memory 10 (nonvolatile memory) connected to theapplication processor 5.
