Abstract

A clock control cell for production of an output clock signal from an input clock signal has a hold element and an output stage. The hold element is preceded by a signal level converter, with the signal level converter designed such that it converts an input signal to an output signal at predetermined signal levels, wherein the input clock signal is the input signal of the signal level converter.
