A vibration power generator, provided with a mechanism for converting vibrational energy into electrical energy, comprises a switch for switching over whether or not power is outputted, and control of the switch is executed by periodic control thereof such that switchover occurs between respective time periods for outputting the power and respective time periods for not outputting the power at cycles not less than twice and not more than 100 times cycles of vibration. With the invention, efficiency of the generator can be enhanced, and it is possible to provide electronic equipment without power supply from outside, and capable of saving trouble of battery replacement.

A body bias control system allows for independent design of a functional module, thereby reducing the burden of designing the module. The body bias control system provides a switch circuit having an area in which the body bias is controlled independently of its outside portion, for controlling the supply of body bias in the vicinity of the area. Preferably three types of switches are provided for switching the body bias to suitable levels for a standby mode, a mode of normal operation and a mode of high-speed operation.
