Abstract: Provided is an amplifier with a test oscillator for a high frequency characteristic monitor, which has small power loss in a normal operation state and secures good noise performance while it is possible to equip both a transmitter IC and a receiver IC with the amplifier. In a high frequency IC including an amplifier including an inductive load and a test oscillator arranged in a same chip, the test oscillator commonly uses the inductive load of the amplifier, the amplifier has a bias voltage terminal to switch an operation state into an active state/inactive state, and the oscillator has a bias voltage terminal to switch an operation state into an active state/inactive state. In a test operation mode, the amplifier is inactivated and the test oscillator is activated and in a normal operation mode, the amplifier is activated and the test oscillator is inactivated.
