の割合も増加することが多い。2. Description of the Related Art Portable telephones (hereinafter, also simply referred to as portable telephones) have been remarkably spread, and the spread thereof has progressed very rapidly. Each year, mobile phone manufacturers make millions of products. As demand increases, competition intensifies and demands on manufacturers for lower prices (cost pressure) also intensify. Further, relatively speaking, as the miniaturization progresses, the ratio of the price of parts to the cost (cost) of the entire mobile phone often increases.

を占めることに注目されたい。[0003] Further, some users are only interested in a small portion of the many functions that mobile phones have. For example, a user may want to mount a mobile phone in a car and insert it into a cradle to transmit signals via an on-board audio system and use an external antenna. Other users may also be interested in connecting their mobile phone to their laptop computer to send and receive facsimile documents and to connect to external networks. Still other users may use the cell phone simply as a basic audio phone and need an interconnect only for charging the internal batteries. These basic users account for a significant proportion of the purchasers of mobile phones. The basic user does not need a complicated interface as part of the telephone to provide the data transmission input / output equipment required for other uses. Note that small data input / output interface connectors are expensive and represent a significant portion of the overall cost of a mobile phone.
