Patent ID: 6861875

Claim:
A system ( 2 ) of a control unit ( 4 ) and a logic application ( 6 ), wherein the control unit ( 4 ) and the logic application ( 6 ) can be connected to a system clock, wherein the logic application ( 6 ) comprises a series connection ( 16 ) of logic elements ( 18 ), wherein, in use, the system clock generates a clock signal ( 8 ) and feeds this to the control unit ( 4 ) and the series connection ( 16 ) of the logic application ( 6 ), and wherein the control unit ( 4 ) controls a first supply voltage ( 10 ) for the series connection ( 16 ) on the basis of the clock signal ( 8 ) such that the delay time of the series connection ( 16 ) is at least substantially equal to a predetermined value.
