    Abstract: A semiconductor device 1a includes: a first external terminal 31 to which a first voltage is to be applied; a second external terminal 32 to which a second voltage is to be applied; a third external terminal 33; first wiring 17 connected to the first external terminal 31; second wiring 18 connected to the second external terminal 32; an internal block circuit 11 connected to the first wiring 17; a first resistor 12 and a transistor 14 serially connected between the first wiring 17 and the second wiring 18; and a second resistor 13 connected between the first wiring 17 and the second wiring 18. The transistor 14 turns on or off based on a test signa fed from the third external terminal 33. This configuration enables product identification using a resistance value, even if a predetermined resistance value cannot be changed.
