An integrated circuit having a node that is supplied by a first supply potential and is connected to a second supply potential in such a way that a leakage current flows between the node and the second supply potential, a detection circuit that is configured to detect a signal injected between the node and the second supply potential, the temporal variation of which is fast compared to a temporal variation of the leakage current, and a compensation circuit that is configured to compensate for a deviation in the potential of the node from the first supply potential with a delay which is large compared to the temporal variation of the signal.
