Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit comprises a plurality of cores () connected with an inter-connection network () and a test controller () which is connected with the inter-connection network () and which issues a test control request associated with the test of the core () via the inter-connection network (). The inter-connection network () is constituted of a plurality of adapters () which serve as connection interfaces of the plurality of cores () and the test controller (), respectively, and a plurality of routers () which connect the plurality of adapters (). The adapters () connected with the core () comprise a core testing unit for vicariously testing core () connected to itself based on the test control request received from the test controller () via the inter-connection network ().
