Date Sep. 28, 1995The integrated circuit with a clock system, particularly a CMOS circuit with extensive pipelining, whereby an optimally low overall dissipated power is effected in that a clock driver circuit is provided with a specifically wired driver output stage that generates a clock supply voltage that corresponds to about half the value of a general supply voltage. A great reduction of the dissipated power can be achieved given relative slight sacrifices in the performance capability.
