ABSTRACT:
An internal circuit reduces power consumption when it is in a non-operation standby state (power-down state). A switch means is provided between an internal circuit and a power supply to reduce power consumed by a semiconductor device even if a subthreshold current flows within the internal circuit of a semiconductor integrated circuit. The switch means has the function of substantially providing non-continuity between the internal circuit and the power supply in response to a control signal inputted from an external terminal when the internal circuit is in a non-operation mode.
