Abstract
A multi-bit output configuration memory circuit comprises: a memory core having a normal cell array and a redundant cell array, which have a plurality of memory cells; N output terminals which respectively output N-bit output read out from the memory core; an output circuit provided between the output terminals and the memory core, which detects whether each L-bit output of the N-bit output (N=L×M) read out from said memory core matches or not and outputs a compressed output which becomes the output data in the event of a match while becomes a third state in the event of a non-match, to a first output terminal of the N output terminals. Responding to each of a plurality of test commands or the test control signals of the external terminals, the compressed output of the M groups of L-bit output is outputted in time shared.
