ABSTRACT:
Power supply voltages are selectively modulated to correspond with degraded input voltages to a logic device. Modulated power supply voltages are provided to transistors within the logic device, so that the degraded input voltages supplied to the transistors are sufficient to turn the transistors substantially on or off. Leakage currents are prevented thereby from flowing across the transistors.
