Abstract
The disclosure provides a button-press detection and filtering method, related circuit, and button-press detection chip for a external device. A button-press signal from a wire control apparatus is coupled to the button-press detection chip for the external device. The button-press detection chip for the external device can digitally sample the button-press signal through the filter circuit and outputs a digital logic signal corresponding to a button to an audio codec according to the sampling result. The audio codec can determine a pressed button according to the digital logic signal and performs a corresponding function. With the solutions of the disclosure, a noise interference signal in a button-press signal may be avoided and a pressed button may be accurately detected, without using a dedicated chip or complex software codes in a wire control apparatus and an electronic device.
