ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor integrated circuit includes a core circuit, a power supply switch situated on a path providing a current to the core circuit and configured to control a state of current supply to the core circuit in response to a control signal applied to a control node, a clamp circuit configured to clamp a voltage of the control signal, and a switching circuit configured to control whether to enable or disable a clamp operation of the clamp circuit.
