Abstract

A semiconductor device includes: a test signal generation circuit that, modulates a test signal to generate third and fourth modulated signals; an amplification circuit that, outputs a third amplified signal obtained by amplifying the third modulated signal to a first output terminal and outputs a fourth amplified signal obtained by amplifying the fourth modulated signal to a second output terminal; a peak frequency detection circuit that, measures a potential difference between the first and second output terminals to detect a peak frequency at which an impedance of a sound reproduction device reaches a peak; and a determination circuit that, determines whether or not the peak frequency is included in a reference frequency range determined based on a frequency band of the test signal and temperature information of the sound reproduction device.
