Abstract
The semiconductor integrated circuit device is a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a pulse generator and a latch circuit. The pulse generator has a first charge/discharge path and a second charge/discharge path and a charge unit for pre-charging first nodes. The first charge/discharge path and the second charge/discharge path include: two first switching units, connected to the first nodes, and configured to control, according to an input signal, conduction and non-conduction of the first charge/discharge path and the second charge/discharge path; and a second switching unit, disposed between a second node and a reference voltage node, and configured to be turned on in a period prior to capturing the input signal to allow an electric charge accumulated at the second node to be discharged to the reference voltage node, and at the same time, configured to be turned on in a period of capturing the input signal to allow the first node to discharge.
