An electric pump is turned ON and OFF by a main drive circuit including a negative pressure sensor for detecting a negative pressure in an accumulator, a first relay and a control device, and also turned ON and OFF by a back-up drive circuit including a negative pressure switch for detecting a negative pressure in an accumulator, and a second relay. For a period from the starting of the electric pump by the back-up drive circuit to the stopping of the electric pump by the main drive circuit, there is a period during which the electric pump is being driven only by the back-up drive circuit and a period during which the electric pump is being driven only by the main drive circuit. For each of these periods, a trouble of the main drive circuit and/or the back-up drive circuit can be determined by reference to a check signal indicative of the operational state of the electric pump. Thus, it is possible to reliably detect a trouble with the driving of the electric pump connected to the accumulator.

For functional blocks of an IC, each functional block comprising a plurality of macroblocks, each macroblock comprising a plurality of basic cells, a mask pattern is patterned in accordance with a layout design by using its connection data of the macroblocks in each functional block and its placement data of the basic cells in each functional block. Use of the placement data in addition to the connection data makes it possible to regularly and systematically arrange the basic cells in each functional block to achieve shortest possible connections in each fundamental block and a narrowest possible area of each functional block. In order to put a CPU in operation of patterning the mask pattern, an operating system comprises for read by the CPU first and second memories loaded with the connection and the placement data, respectively.

An interconnection circuit having a circuit portion which is provided in one of two integrated semiconductors to be connected, for limiting the amplitude in voltage of the signal output from said one circuit, and another circuit portion which is provided in the other one of the two circuits, for discriminating the logic level of the signal input thereinto based on a threshold level set at an intermediate level between said amplitude. The amplitude of the logic signal transferred across the two circuits is thus compressed, thereby deereasing delay time for the signal to transfer between the two circuits.

A variable delay buffer circuit composed of a cascade of variable delay buffers, which realizes a delay in response to a delay control signal without any glitches. The delay buffers each have a selector circuit for selecting one of an input signal and a delayed signal produced by delaying in time the input signal in response to a delaying information. The delay buffers each contains a first control means and an output means. The first control means controls a timing of a input of the delaying information into the selector circuit in response to an external control signal. The output means outputs the control signal to by synchronized with an output signal from the selector circuit. Preferably, the first control means contains a latching means for latching the delay information and a second control means for controlling a timing in output of the delay information from the latching means in response to the control signal.

Switching circuits are connected between data input lines to and data output lines to connect switch paths between them. A two-input selector is connected to each of the data input lines to supply a data input signal or a test signal to the switching circuits. The selection of the two signals depends on whether the data input line is being used or not. The switch path connections in the switching circuits are controlled by the switching control circuits. Normally, a particular switch path is connected, but while testing, all the switch paths of an unoperated switching circuit which is not normally selected, are connected by a test address signal. The outputs of the switching circuits are detected by an error detector and compared with an expected data sequence, which indicates which output of the switching circuits is detected by the error detector.

An output circuit for a high speed and low power logic circuit is disclosed. The logic circuit performs a logic operation on a plurality of input data signals supplied thereto and produces true and complementary intermediate output signals, the logic high level of the intermediate output signal being lower than a first power voltage and the logic low level thereof being substantially equal to a second power voltage. The output circuit includes a P-channel MOS transistor having a gate supplied with the complementary intermediate output signal, a source connected to a power voltage supplied with the first power voltage and a drain connected to an output terminal, and an N-channel MOS transistor having a gate connected to the power terminal, a source supplied with the true intermediate output signal and a drain connected to the output terminal, and thus produces at the output terminal an output signal having a logic amplitude between the first and second power voltages.

A fault detecting system is provided for detecting fault of an ADPCM codec for transcoding an input signal between an ADPCM and a PCM to produce a first code converted signal. The ADPCM codec has a data RAM for storing data used for the transcoding and is provided with a data transmitter for transmitting the data. A fault detecting processor receives the data and generates a second code conversion signal from the received data. The fault detecting processor compares the first and the second code converted signals and produces a fault signal when both of the signals are not coincident with each other. The input signal can be supplied to the fault detecting processor directly or as a part of the data transmitted thereto. The fault detecting processor can detect fault of a plurality of ADPCM codecs by a time division fashion. The ADPCM codec and the fault detecting processor may be implemented as similar LSI processors each comprising a transcoding section, a data transmitting/receiving section, and a comparing section.
