Abstract: An earphone comprising: a speaker unit which electroacoustic-coverts an audio signal to a sound wave; a microphone unit which acoustic electro-convers a sound wave to an audio signal; and a housing which mounts the speaker unit and the microphone unit in an inside of the housing; wherein the housing defines a first acoustic space at one side of a diaphragm of the speaker unit, arranges the microphone unit at a side of a second acoustic space which is defined at the other side of the diaphragm and does not communicate with the first acoustic space, and includes an opening which communicates a front room space of the microphone unit with an external space, a microphone cover member which defines the front room space with the microphone unit, and a waterproof ventilation member which is mounted on the microphone cover member, covers the microphone cover member so that a waterdrop does not invade to a sound hole of the microphone unit which communicates with the front room space and has ventilation.

Abstract: Through heat discharge only by wiring connected to a conventional semiconductor chip, sufficient heat discharge performance may not be achieved in a recent semiconductor device. A semiconductor device according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a flexible substrate including a first main surface and a second main surface; a semiconductor chip; a first heat conductive layer formed on the first main surface of the flexible substrate and electrically connected to the semiconductor chip; and a second heat conductive layer formed on the second main surface of the flexible substrate and electrically insulated from the semiconductor chip.

Abstract: A semiconductor device on a tape carrier package with improved heat dissipation, as provided. The number of outputs of the semiconductor device has been increased for implementing a multi-channel configuration, and narrower pitches are employed. Included are a tape carrier 20 having lead patterns 21 to 24 formed on a tape base 28 thereof, and a semiconductor device 10 mounted on the tape carrier 20 and having electrode patterns 11 to 14 disposed thereon. The semiconductor device 10 includes heat dissipating electrode patterns 15 to 17 at positions where the heat dissipating electrode patterns 15 to 17 do not interfere with the electrode patterns 11 to 14. The lead patterns 21 to 24 are electrically connected to the corresponding electrode patterns 11 to 14, respectively. On the tape carrier 20, heat dissipation patterns 25 to 27 are formed. The heat dissipation patterns have a surface area broader than that of the lead patterns and have the heat dissipating electrode patterns disposed thereon.
