PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the power of a circuit and reduce noise generated in the circuit by dividing the circuit and allowing the divided circuits to independently operate in predetermined timing. SOLUTION: This apparatus has a plurality of domains 31 individually operating by dividing a signal processing circuit; virtual power source lines 41 each provided in each of the domains; and a control circuit 20 for controlling the domains, so that the domains are activated or non-activated by switching the virtual power source lines based on a control signal. This apparatus prevents noise generated in each of the domains from being transferred to a domain in a post-stage, and reduces power consumption. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
