ABSTRACT:
Power consumption is reduced in a semiconductor integrated circuit. In a conventional flip-flop circuit, there is a transistor between one side current electrode of a PMOS transistor (PTr7) and an node (V0) of a power source. This transistor is deleted and one side current electrode of (PTr7) is connected to an node (D2). In a similar manner, one side current electrode of (PTr13) is connected to an node (D13), one side current electrode of an NMOS transistor (NTr6) is connected to an node (D6), and one side current electrode of (NTr14) is connected to an node (D12). Thus, by deleting transistors, the capacity of transistors which are to be driven by a clock signal is reduced, and therefore, power consumption is reduced.
