Abstract

An arithmetic processing section is designed to repeatedly execute product-sum arithmetic processing a number of times equal to the number of samples corresponding to each of the frequencies, in which a value obtained by subtracting a product-sum arithmetic value two sampling periods before from an input signal and a value obtained by multiplying a product-sum arithmetic value one sampling period before by a coefficient corresponding to a reference frequency contained in a DTMF signal are added. A comparator extracts an output value equal to or larger than a predetermined threshold value from the product-sum arithmetic values obtained by the arithmetic processing section. A matrix section determines the type of DTMF signal on the basis of at least two output values extracted by the comparator.
