A receiving apparatus includes an analog demodulation unit, a digital demodulation/decoding unit, a delay unit, a reception state detecting unit, first/second processing units, and a mixing processing unit. The analog demodulation unit demodulates a first audio signal. The digital demodulation/decoding unit demodulates and decodes a second audio signal. The delay unit delays at least one of the first and second audio signals, to be outputted as third and fourth audio signals. The reception state detecting unit outputs an analog reception state signal. The first/second audio processing units control at least one of volume and quality of the third/fourth audio signals, to be outputted as fifth and sixth audio signals. The mixing processing unit mixes the fifth and sixth audio signal at a predetermined ratio, outputted according to a reception state of at least one of a broadcast wave of analog broadcasting and the broadcast wave of digital broadcasting.

A filtering integrated circuit comprises: a storing circuit; a filter coefficient calculating unit configured to receive frequency information that identifies a characteristic frequency of an output signal in a filtering process, and to set filter coefficients calculated based on the frequency information in the storing circuit; and a filtering unit configured to output the output signal after applying a filtering process to an inputted signal based on the filter coefficients set in the storing circuit.

Filtering integrated circuit

Volume adjustment is performed in small steps at a DSP () and volume adjustment is performed in wide steps at electronic volume circuits (L,R). Adjustment only by the DSP () is performed for a small volume range less than or equal to a predetermined level. For a volume higher than or equal to the predetermined level, fine adjustment by the DSP () at the transient period of volume adjustment is combined to reduce the increment of variation so that the volume adjustment is performed gradually.
