Semiconductor integrated circuit device with a plurality of internal circuits operable in synchronism with internal clock

摘要

A second clock is generated as an intermittent train of pulses by removing some pulses from a first clock having a predetermined period, and is supplied as an internal clock to internal circuits of a semiconductor integrated circuit device. At the same time, a current generating circuit for consuming a power supply current is operated in timed relation to a third clock which comprises a train of pulses to be removed from the first clock.
