Abstract:
1. A receiving device, comprising: a receiver configured to receive only a partial segment among a plurality of segments obtained by dividing a frequency band of one physical channel when the receiving device is in a waiting state, and returning from the waiting state to an activated state when warning information is transmitted, if transmission of the warning information by the partial segment is possible, the warning information being seismic-motion warning information transmitted by an auxiliary channel (AC) signal prescribed by an integrated services digital broadcasting-terrestrial (ISDB-T) standard; and a controller configured to start processing for outputting a warning in response a determination by the receiver that the seismic-motion warning information is transmitted and a detection flag indicating that the seismic-motion warning information is transmitted or at least part of the seismic-motion warning information is output from the receiver, wherein the receiver outputs the detection flag or the at least part of the warning information from a pin of a first semiconductor chip on which the receiver is mounted to a pin of a second semiconductor chip on which the controller is mounted, and the controller starts processing for outputting warning if the detection flag or the at least part of the warning information is input to the pin of the second semiconductor chip.
