Abstract
Four I/O pads are allocated to a group from one end to the other. A test circuit is provided for each of the groups. The four I/O pads are only connected to a test data terminal of an IC tester while the rest of the I/O pads are not connected. The test circuit comprises: a test mode detection circuit for detecting the device shifting to the test mode; a test mode writing circuit for writing data inputted from one of the I/O pads into four memory cells; a coincidence circuit for determining whether the data read from the four memory cells coincide with each other; and a data output circuit for outputting the result to the I/O pad.
