    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit to receive a test scan input, a test clock, and a test mode signal and output a secure scan output signal, the integrated circuit including: a secure key circuit to generate delay input signals, which are differently delayed from the test scan input, and to generate an input key signal by capturing the delay input signals in response to the test clock; a key comparator to generate a verification result indicating whether an input key of the input key signal is identical with a preset reference key; a chip to generate a scan output signal based on the test scan input; a scan output remapper to obfuscate the scan output signal according to the verification result and to output the obfuscated scan output signal as the secure scan output signal; and a secure scan controller to control the secure key circuit, key comparator, chip, and remapper.

    Abstract: Provided are a logic built-in self-test (BIST) circuit that performs a scan test improving test coverage for each clock domain and a semiconductor device including the logic BIST circuit. The logic BIST circuit includes an OR gate configured to receive a scan enable signal and a register setting signal, and generate a modified scan enable signal; a clock gating circuit configured to output an enable clock irrespective of a function enable signal when the register setting signal has a first logic value, and a scan chain configured to capture an output of a first logic circuit connected to flip-flops according to the enable clock.
