    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase operation speed and reduce power consumption in a circuit using an SOI-type MOS transistor. SOLUTION: In a plurality of MOS transistors of an SOI structure, body floating, a fixed body voltage, and a variable body voltage are combined. The body floating, body fixed voltage, and variable body bias may be adopted for cases where high-speed operation is expected in a logical circuit mainly composed of switching operation while an operating power supply is at a relatively low voltage, the kink phenomenon of current/voltage characteristics is hated essentially as in an analog-based circuit, and high-speed operation is required in an active state and low power consumption is required in a standby state as in a logical circuit, respectively. By combining the body floating, fixed body voltage, and variable body voltage transistors, an accurate body bias can be adopted according to the functions and configurations of the circuit for high-speed operation and low power consumption.

    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optimize body bias control to a data holding flip-flop using an SOI type MOS transistor according to its operating state. SOLUTION: Each of a plurality of circuits consisting of the SOI type MOS transistor has a flip-flop consisting of a master latch part (MLAT) made into selective power shutdown by a power switch (10) and a slave latch part (SLATdr) made into non-object for the selective power shutdown. The slave latch part is body bias controlled so that threshold voltage of the MOS transistor may become small in a power non-shutdown state and body bias controlled so that the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor may become large in a power shutdown state. Thus, speeding up of the flip-flop is assured in the power non-shutdown state and subthreshold leak current at the slave latch part is reduced in an operation power source shutdown state of the master latch part.

    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a delay overhead in a multiplexer-scanning flip-flop and make a layout area smaller.
    SOLUTION: During normal operation, a selector 4a selects a data signal D, and a data-saving flip-flop 3 is in a holding state. During a scan path test, a scanning operation is performed by setting a standby signal Standby EN at a Lo level, and by setting the standby signal Standby EN at a Hi level, respectively. The data-saving flip-flop 3 always holds data obtained one cycle before, because data is transferred from the data-scanning flip-flop 3 to a multiplexer-scanning flip-flop 4. Thus, a buffer becomes unnecessary that is normally inserted in the scan path as measures to hold.
