Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit has: N input terminals; N output terminals; a plurality of flip-flops including N flip-flops and R redundant flip-flops; a selector section configured to select N selected flip-flops from the plurality of flip-flops depending on reconfiguration information and to switch data flow such that data input to the N input terminals are respectively output to the N output terminals by the N selected flip-flops; and an error detection section. At a test mode, the N flip-flops form a scan chain and a scan data is input to the scan chain. The error detection section detects an error flip-flop included in the N flip-flops based on scan input/output data respectively input/output to/from the N flip-flops at the test mode and further generates the reconfiguration information such that the detected error flip-flop is excluded from the N selected flip-flops.
