Abstract
A method for controlling delays in silicon on insulator circuits is disclosed. A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprises a first circuit and a second circuit. The first circuit includes multiple transistors, some of which have a floating body. In addition, the first circuit includes an input and an output. The second circuit is selectively coupled to a floating body of some of the transistors in the first circuit in order to control the delay of the output of the first circuit.
