1. An in-vehicle apparatus comprising:

  • a main body part configured to have a front panel of a predetermined size;

    an analog input terminal configured to be provided in the front panel, an analog audio signal or an analog video signal supplied from an external three-pole plug being input to the analog input terminal;

    a video processing circuit configured to be connected to an audio L-channel terminal and a ground terminal of the three-pole plug and execute predetermined signal processing for the analog video signal;

    an audio processing circuit configured to be connected to the audio L-channel terminal, an audio R-channel terminal and the ground terminal of the three-pole plug and execute predetermined signal processing for the analog audio signal;

    an input control circuit including a transistor, a first resistor, a second resistor and a third resistor, whereinthe first resistor is provided between the audio L-channel terminal of the three pole plug and a collector of the transistor and functions for impedance matching for the analog video signal,the second resistor is provided between a base of the transistor and a microcomputer,the third resistor is provided between the ground terminal of the three-pole plug and the base of the transistor,an emitter of the transistor is connected to the ground terminal of the three-pole plug, andthe microcomputer is configured to allow impedance matching through the first resistor for impedance matching by making the transistor carry out on-operation if a signal supplied via the analog input terminal is the analog video signal, and make the analog audio signal be input to the audio processing circuit by making the transistor carry out off-operation if a signal supplied via the analog input terminal is the analog audio signal.
