The purpose of the invention is to determine an optimum initial value to be input to a test pattern generator in order to achieve efficient testing of an integrated circuit. To achieve this purpose, a minimum test length is obtained by performing a fault simulation and a reverse-order fault simulation using an arbitrarily given initial value; the next initial value that is likely to yield a test length shorter than the minimum test length is computed and a fault simulation is performed using the thus computed initial value; and the next initial value that is likely to yield a test length shorter than that test length is computed and a fault simulation is performed using the thus computed initial value. By repeating this process, an initial value that yields the shortest test length is obtained.

An object of the invention is to drastically reduce the area overhead in a semiconductor integrated circuit incorporating a test configuration that uses a partially rotational scan circuit. To achieve this, in the semiconductor integrated circuit incorporating the test configuration that comprises a combinational circuit (3) and a scan chain (2) constructed by connecting a plurality of scan flip-flops (5) in a chain, the scan chain (2) is divided into a plurality of sub scan-chains (20a to 20n) each of which has a partially rotational scan (PRS) function and a test response compaction (MISR) function. By performing a scan test in a plurality of steps while changing the combination of the sub scan-chains to be set as PRS and the sub scan-chains to be set as MISR, the test can be performed without having to provide a test response compactor separately from the scan chain, and thus the area overhead can be reduced.

A connector comprises a housing, a lever and a lock portion. The housing receives terminals. The lever, rotatably attached to the housing, is configured to be rotatable between a first position, where an initial stage of fitting to a counterpart connector is established, and a second position, where the fitting thereof is completed. The lock portion, capable of locking the lever at the second position, is slidably attached to a body portion of the lever, and configured to be slid between a lock position and a lock release position. The lever is provided with a positioning latch-portion configured to latch the lock portion. The positioning latch-portion is provided with a concave latch-portion and a convex latch-portion configured to be elastically displaced to be engaged in or disengaged from the concave latch-portion.

An information playback apparatus is disclosed which can play back information with a high degree of accuracy. The information playback apparatus plays back the addresses from a recording medium on which a land address and a groove address are recorded at positions displaced from each other. The information playback apparatus includes an AM detection circuit for detecting an AM read out from the recording medium to produce an AM detection pulse signal, a masking signal production circuit and an AND circuit for removing, when a pickup scans the land, an AM detection pulse produced while the pickup passes the land adjacent an area in which the groove address is recorded but removing, when the pickup scans the groove, an AM detection pulse produced while the pickup passes the groove adjacent an area in which the land address is recorded to produce a synchronism detection signal, and an address data decoding circuit for decoding the information in response to the synchronism detection signal to produce address data.
