A semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus includes a first circuit block including a critical path and second and third circuit blocks not including the critical path. A threshold voltage of a semiconductor element of a circuit in the first circuit block is equal to or lower than a threshold voltage of a semiconductor element of a circuit in the second circuit block and a supply voltage supplied to the first circuit block is equal to or higher than a supply voltage supplied to the second circuit block, wherein the critical path in the first circuit block is eliminated. A threshold voltage of a semiconductor element of a circuit in the third circuit block is equal to or lower than the threshold voltage of the semiconductor element of the circuit in the second circuit block, and a supply voltage supplied to the third circuit block is equal to or lower than the supply voltage supplied to the second circuit block, wherein power consumption of the third circuit block is reduced.
A semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus comprising:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus provided with a first circuit block including a critical path, and second and third circuit blocks not including the critical path, the method comprising:
