  • the invention specifically relates to an apparatus and method for dynamically connecting a variety of sources and sinks ("source/sinks") of analog signals, such as speaker phones, headsets, modems, wireless cellular telephone links, data links and telephone land lines.
  • source/sinks of analog and digital signals may reside entirely within the portable communication device or be connected to other portable device via wireless or wired connections.
  • Full-featured smart phones and personal digital assistants may include a variety of sources and sinks of analog and digital signals, such as two or more sets of audio speakers and microphones, cellular and land-line telephone modules, modems, and other devices.
  • Some of the sources and sinks of signals are user interface devices, such as keyboards, LCD displays, analog speakers and microphones, and other types of user interface devices.

  • a pair (or more) of the sources and sinks of signals to establish a communication pathway between the user interface device, e.g., microphone and speaker in a telephone handset, and a communication device, e.g., a cellular telephone module.
  • the smart phone or personal digital assistant must dynamically connect the sources and sinks of signals depending on which user interfaces and communication devices are active. As each communication session is initiated, the smart phone or personal digital assistant must establish a communication path between the selected user interface and communication modules. For example, if a user desires to place a cellular telephone call during which a group of individuals will listen and speak, the smart phone or personal digital assistant must connect an analog speaker phone device to a cellular telephone communication module. After a communication session is terminated, the smart phone or personal digital assistant may disconnect the selected user interface and communications module in order to be prepared for the next communication session.
  • An innovation of the current smart phone or personal digital assistant system is to route analog signals between sources/sinks (i.e., user interfaces and communication links) without converting the analog signals to digital form.
  • Digital signals may be routed through the system in a manner similar to that used for analog signals, routed by and through a processor, or routed by some other technique conventionally employed for digital signals.
  • most systems were not adapted to dynamically interconnect sources and sinks of analog signals, or, if they did, required manually configured switches and/or ports to inter- connected analog signals.
  • Systems that did process both analog and digital signals have typically converted all signals to a digital format and then processed the digitized signals. For example, an analog signal would be received by the portable computer device from a telephone communication module, converted to a digital form, processed by and routed through the portable device, and then converted back to analog form as the signal is fed to, for example, an analog speaker.
