Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
64 words
A signal processing device comprising: a printed wiring board substantially completely formed of a magnetically active material; a magnetism antenna for receiving and transmitting magnetism, wherein the magnetism antenna includes a coil wound around the printed wiring board; and a signal processing circuit disposed on the printed wiring board for processing a signal received by the magnetism antenna and a signal to be transmitted.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
64 words
A signal processing device comprising: a printed wiring board substantially completely formed of a magnetically active material; a magnetism antenna for receiving and transmitting magnetism, wherein the magnetism antenna includes a coil wound around the printed wiring board; and a signal processing circuit disposed on the printed wiring board for processing a signal received by the magnetism antenna and a signal to be transmitted.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The signal processing device according to claim 1, wherein a resin-molded body is formed around the printed wiring board, one end of the printed wiring board protruded from the resin-molded body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
134 words
A key device, comprising: a signal processing device including: a printed wiring board substantially completely formed of a magnetically active material, a magnetism antenna for receiving and transmitting magnetism, wherein the antenna includes a coil wound around the printed wiring board, a signal processing circuit disposed on the printed wiring board for processing a signal received by the magnetism antenna and a signal to be transmitted, and a first molded body formed around the printed wiring board, the magnetism antenna, and the signal processing circuit, a portion of the printed wiring board protruding from the molded body; and a key plate having a stem, wherein the stem includes a slit for receiving and holding the protruded portion; and a second molded body enclosing the signal processing device and a portion of the key plate.
