Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a technology for realising new high performance portable electronic equipment featuring small size, low cost, and low power consumption especially in relation to configuration of an antenna as well as to configuration of a receiving circuit and a signal decoding circuit in the field of portable electronic equipment for modifying clock display or displaying a message by receiving electric means.
An electronic equipment according to the present invention solves the problems as described above by employing a Hall effect device (5007) with a ferromagnetic body (5003, 5005) adjacent thereto as an antenna.
