ABSTRACT:
A monolithic integrated circuit arrangement containing a substrate, a functional unit formed in and/or on the substrate, and an energy supply unit, which is formed in and/or on the substrate and is coupled to the functional unit and has an inductance and a permanent magnet. The inductance and the permanent magnet are arranged such that, under a vibration on the circuit arrangement, the permanent magnet is moved relative to the inductance such that an electrical induced voltage for supplying the functional unit with electrical energy is induced by the inductance.
