An electronic circuit according to the present invention has one or more circuit sections which operate according to a variable power supply voltage and a variable clock frequency. In the electronic circuit, active information related to load and/or processing time which changes in real time from a control processing section included in the circuit section is output and, based on the active information, a voltage/frequency setting section which sets values of a power supply voltage and clock frequency is provided. The electronic circuit further includes a voltage controller which controls the power supply voltage to be supplied to the circuit section based on the voltage value set by the voltage/frequency setting section and a clock frequency controller which controls the clock frequency to be supplied to the circuit section based on the frequency value set by the voltage/frequency setting section.
An electronic device having a plurality of circuit blocks, each of the plurality of circuit blocks having at least one of a first circuit section or a second circuit section, comprising:
