Abstract

Electric charge is supplied to a circuit node being in a charge storing state within a signal processor in response to a signal-processing commencing signal. The processor is operated in a low-temperature range, for example, in the range of temperature below 200K. By this structure, a leakage current is reduced, a high degree of integration equivalent to that of a dynamic circuit can be obtained, and the simplicity of a static circuit not requiring any complicated internal/external timing signals can be realized.
