Portable communication terminal

Abstract

In the upper enclosure, a CPU for application and a memory for application as well as an application device are mounted. In the lower enclosure, a CPU for communication and a memory for communication as well as a transmission/reception circuit are mounted. In such a configuration, the data transfer for application processing is executed mainly in the upper enclosure. Thus, the quantity of data passing through the folding portion from/to the lower enclosure for the application processing is reduced. The wire harness is simplified and power consumption is reduced.

1 . A portable communication terminal comprising;
 a first enclosure including a function device for processing an image data, a first CPU for controlling said function device, and a first memory controlled by said first CPU; and   a second enclosure being mechanically and electrically connected to the first enclosure, the second enclosure including a transmission/reception circuit for performing communication between the terminal and the outside, a second CPU for controlling said transmission/reception circuit, and a second memory controlled by said second CPU.
