Abstract
An integrated circuit having cascade-connected multiplexers and a precharge unit. The cascade-connected multiplexers each have a plurality of data inputs, a data output, wherein each data input and each data output has two terminals for the application of a dual-rail signal, and a control input, wherein a signal present at the control input defines which of the data inputs is connected to the data output. The precharge unit, which is driven with a precharge unit control signal, is connected to the data output or at least one of the data inputs of one of the multiplexers to thereby bring the data outputs and/or data inputs of the multiplexers into a precharge state before execution of a computation operation.
