Abstract: A test apparatus is configured to test a DUT that does not support synchronous control from an external circuit. A main controller is configured based on an architecture that tests a device by synchronous control with the main controller itself as the master. A MIU is configured as an interface between the main controller and the DUT. The MIU establishes asynchronous control between it and the DUT with the DUT as the master, and establishes control between it and the main controller with the main controller as the master.

Abstract: A test system tests a DUT configured as a wireless device. A golden device is configured to provide bidirectional communication between it and the DUT. A measurement device acquires a first signal S1 including at least an output SDUT of the DUT. An interface unit monitors a second signal S2 including at least one of the output SGD of the golden device and the output SDUT of the DUT. In response to the occurrence of a predetermined waveform pattern in the second signal, the interface unit generates a trigger signal TRIG for instructing the measurement device to acquire a signal.

Abstract: An audio system is provided that comprises a headphone for reading music information or the like recorded in a memory card attached to an external interface to reproduce audio signal and for outputting sound conforming to the audio signal; and a remote control unit for transmitting control signal for controlling reproduction function or the like of the music information of the headphone to the headphone due to infrared rays. In the audio system, the control signal of infrared rays of less data amount compared with the audio signal or the like is transmitted. Accordingly, circuit configuration and component configuration can be made simpler, the remote control unit can be downsized, and the headphone and the remote control unit can be made wireless, resulting in an easier handling.
