Abstract: Disclosed is an earphone system. The earphone system includes a charging box and an earphone, which is detachably assembled in the charging box. The charging box includes a processing module provided with a first identification time period, a power outputting module and a first switch module. During the first identification time period when the earphone is connected to the charging box, the earphone system is in a test mode, and the first switch module is switched for the charging box to transmit power to the earphone through the power outputting module and the first switch module. After the earphone is connected to the charging box for more than the first identification time period, the earphone system is in a communication mode, and the first switch module is switched for the charging box to transmit a data signal to the earphone through the processing module and the first switch module.

Abstract: An earphone includes a housing that defines a force input surface opposite a touch input surface. A spring member in the housing includes a first arm that biases a touch sensor toward the touch input surface. The spring member also includes a second arm that biases a first force electrode toward the housing and allows the first force electrode to move toward a second force electrode when a force is applied to the force input surface. A non-binary amount of the force is determinable using a change in a mutual capacitance between the first force electrode and the second force electrode. The mutual capacitance between the first force electrode and the second force electrode may be measured upon detecting a touch using the touch sensor.

Abstract: A control circuit for an electrostatic transducer including: an audio signal input, a detector configured to detect a current or charge signal from the electrostatic transducer. The detector is configured to produce an audio output signal varying at audio frequencies. A transform circuit is configured to transform the audio output signal to produce a feedback signal. A comparator is configured to compare an input audio signal at the audio signal input to the feedback signal to produce an error signal. A controller is configured to input a control signal to the electrostatic transducer, the control signal responsive to the error signal. The control signal is configured to control acoustic transparency of the electrostatic transducer, from outside space through through-holes of the first electrode, across the membrane and through through-holes of the second electrode.
