Abstract: In an automatic dial telephone that is usuable in a motor vehicle, when a voice input is provided during a period in which input of the names of called parties is awaited, a voice pattern of the name of the called party is compared with reference patterns of called parties stored in reference pattern storing device, to determine the degree of the similarity therebetween. The names of the called parties are output to a user in the order of decreasing degree of similarity. Each time the name of a called party is output, a command word for confirmation is a waited from a user for a predetermined time period. When a voice confirmation command is input and is recognized during this waiting period, a telephone number corresponding to the name of the called party is supplied to a channel. Consequently, the command word for confirmation may be input only if the name of the called party outputted is one desired by the user.

Abstract: A hybrid integrated circuit device comprises a metal substrate, a casing member and external leads. An insulating film is formed on the metal substrate, conductive paths are formed on the insulating film, circuit elements are connected to the conductive paths, and conductive pads are formed in the tip portions of the conductive paths. The casing member comprises a sealing portion surrounding the circuit elements and a connector portion projected from the bottom portion of the sealing portion and extending beyond an end of the metal substrate, and formed of insulating resin. Each of the external leads has one end connected to each of the conductive pads and supported by the side surface of the connector portion.
