Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device is composed of logic gates each provided with MOS transistors. The semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a current control device. The circuit can be used in devices that cycle in operation between high and low power consumption modes, such as microprocessors, that have both an operation mode and a low power back-up or sleep mode used for power reduction.
