Abstract
The invention relates to a semi-conductor component, and a process for the in- and/or output of test data and/or semi-conductor component operating control data into or from a semi-conductor component, whereby the semi-conductor component comprises one or more useful data memory cells, and/or one or more test data and/or semi-conductor component operating control data registers for storing test data and/or semi-conductor component operating control data, and whereby the process comprises the steps of applying a control signal to the semi-conductor component, whereby the semi-conductor component is switched from a first to a second operating mode; and applying an address signal to the semi-conductor component, whereby one or more of the test data and/or semi-conductor component operating control data registers of the semi-conductor component is addressed by the address signal in the second operating mode, and one or more of the useful data memory cells in the first operating mode.
