    摘要: A semiconductor IC includes a test circuit comprising a logic circuit, a test timing generator, a first register serving as a test signal generation point, and second and third registers serving as test signal observation points. In this test circuit, a target signal transmission path to be tested is selected from a plurality of signal transmission paths in the logic circuit, and the test timing generator outputs a test clock having a cycle according to a delay time of the selected signal transmission path on design to the first to third registers, whereby the first register generates a test signal and the second and third registers observe the test signal. Therefore, the signal transmission paths connecting the test signal generation point and the test signal observation point are tested with high efficiency, whereby more signal transmission paths are tested for delay faults with less number of times the test is executed.

    摘要: In response to a design request, fault detection strategy optimizing means selects RT-VCs and a fault detection method from a VCDB. The design request includes: requirements for a system LSI (e.g., area, number of pins, test time and information about the weights of prioritized constraints); and VC information. The fault detection strategy optimizing means performs computations for optimization in view of various parameters, thereby specifying a best fault detection strategy and a method of constructing a single-chip fault detection controller. On the VCDB, multiple VCs associated with the same function and mutually different test techniques are stored. By weighting the parameters affecting a test cost in accordance with a user defined priority order, a test technique of the type minimizing the total test cost can be selected from the VCDB.

    摘要: Elements of a combinational circuit are divided into plural groups. The output from a terminal Q is fixed at shifted timing in flip-flop circuits belonging to each of groups X, Y and Z resulting from this grouping. With the outputs from the terminals Q of the flip-flop circuits thus fixed, an operation of a shift mode is carried out. When the operation of the shift mode is completed, a hold releasing operation and a capture operation are carried out with respect to each of the groups of the flip-flop circuits. For example, the hold releasing operation is carried out when one clock is at a high level with the capture operation carried out when the clock is at a low level, or the hold releasing operation is successively carried out with respect to each of the groups and then the capture operation for capturing a data signal is carried out with respect to each of the groups.
