Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit contains a logic circuit which operates upon receiving a clock; a logic built-in self test circuit which executes a built-in self test of said logic circuit, said logic built-in self test circuit having a pattern generator which generates a pattern to be input to said logic circuit, a pattern compactor which receives data output from said logic circuit that has received the pattern, compacts the data, and outputs a result, and a logic built-in self test control unit which controls operations of said pattern generator and said pattern compactor and controls an operation of causing a scan path in said logic circuit to shift upon receiving the pattern; a device circuit which operates upon receiving the clock; and a device circuit built-in self test circuit which executes a built-in self test of said device circuit.
