ABSTRACT:
In a semiconductor integrated circuit device using a ZSCCMOS circuit, a combinational circuit includes a plurality of logic gate circuits, and receives an output of a data holding circuit. The data holding circuit can continue to hold data during cut-off of power supply, and when receiving a predetermined value as a control signal, outputs a predetermined fixed value. A logic gate circuit which outputs “L” when the output of the data holding circuit has the predetermined fixed value has power supply ends connected to a pseudo-power supply line VDDVand a low potential power supply line VSS. A logic gate circuit which outputs “H” when the output of the data holding circuit has the predetermined fixed value has power supply ends connected to a high potential power supply line VDDand a pseudo-power supply line VSSV.
