Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a temperature sensor, a scan control circuit which generates scan chain selection information in accordance with a measurement result of the temperature sensor, a clock control circuit which generates one or more scan chain clock signals based on an external clock signal and the scan chain selection information, a pattern generation circuit which generates a test pattern, and a logic circuit which includes a plurality of scan chains and which receives the scan chain clock signals and the test pattern. The clock control circuit generates the scan chain clock signal in association with each scan chain. During a burn-in test, the logic circuit captures the test pattern into the scan chain associated with the scan chain clock signal.
