Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a digital-analog converter provided with a plurality of current cells, and a test circuit electrically connected to the digital-analog converter to test the digital-analog converter. The test circuit includes: a charge information holding circuit that holds, as differential charge information, a difference value between a first charge according to a first current and a second charge according to a second current by at least one or more current cells among the plurality of current cells; a reference voltage generation circuit that generates a reference voltage to be comparative object; and a comparison circuit that compares a determination voltage according to the differential charge information and the reference voltage to output a comparison result.
