Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides a playing device and a playing method based on the playing device. The playing device includes a headphone interface circuit and a speaker circuit. Signal input terminals of the headphone interface circuit and the speaker circuit are directly connected to a sound source output terminal of the playing device. The signal input terminal of the speaker circuit is connected to a first enable signal output terminal when the first enable signal output terminal outputs a matched enable signal, a sound source signal output from the sound source output terminal is played by the speaker circuit. The signal input terminal of the headphone interface circuit is connected to a second enable signal output terminal. When a headphone is inserted and the second enable signal output terminal outputs a matched enable signal, a sound source signal output from the sound source output terminal is played by the headphone.
