    摘要: A method of diagnosis of an integrated logic circuit having function blocks, in which a test signal is supplied to the logic circuit; an input signal to and an output signal from at least one of the function blocks are detected by the use of a contactless probing device such as an electron beam probing device or laser beam probing device; simulation is carried out of a normal logic operation of the function block with the detected input signal to provide a simulated output signal; the detected and simulated output signals are compared with each other; and the function block is determined as being normal or abnormal according to the result of the comparison. When the function block includes plural logic elements, the cause of the abnormality may be traced back to a faulty function element by detecting the output of a function element by a contactless probing device, comparing the detected output with a corresponding simulated output and repeating the detection and comparison on other function elements in the function block until the comparison results in coincidence. The function element which receives the signal providing the coincidence as a result of the comparison is determined as the faulty function element.

    摘要: Easy testability and data security of an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) can be accomplished by disposing pads and an input/output (I/O) circuit providing addresses, data and control signals necessary for the EEPROM test on a semiconductor substrate and by disposing a two-level test I/O interception circuit consisting of an EEPROM device on the substrate such that once the testing is completed, unauthorized accessing is prevented from outside the semiconductor substrate as a result of having a built-in data security function. A microcomputer having this capability is provided with a central processing unit (CPU) for processing data, a memory, such as an EEPROM, which is internally communicating through a common bus (which transmits data, address and control signals) with the CPU, other than during a test mode, and first and second inhibition circuits which provide the security. The first inhibition circuit is coupled to the data bus and provides a first inhibition operation to prevent access operations to the memory. The first inhibition circuit release the first inhibiting operation in accordance with a signal from outside the semiconductor substrate or body. The second inhibition means is coupled to the data bus and provides a second inhibiting operation to prevent access operations to the memory from outside the semiconductor body via the data bus and permanently disables the access operations to the memory irrespective of a releasing or termination of the first inhibiting operation after the second inhibiting operation has taken effect.

    摘要: A logic LSI chip includes a CPU, a bus, a memory, and a multiplier. In addition, the logic LSI chip includes a command signal line for transferring, from the CPU to the multiplier, a command regarding a multiplication instruction relating to data read out, while the data is being read out from the memory, so that the multiplier can fetch the data directly from the bus. While the CPU is reading data from the memory, therefore, a command of a multiplication instruction relating to data read out is transferred from the CPU to the multiplier. A bus cycle control circuit receives a state signal from the multiplier when the multiplier is executing a repetitional operation and the bus cycle control circuit responds to the state signal by signalling the CPU to delay issuance of a succeeding command to the multiplier.

    摘要: Herein disclosed is a microinstruction controlled data processor in which a microinstruction memory (i.e., an ROM) is driven in each predetermined cycle thereby to generate a plurality of microinstructions in accordance with a page address it receives and in which a general microinstruction contains the page address and the displacement address of the plural preceding microinstructions. One of the plural instructions read out of the ROM is selected upon each read-out operation. The page and displacement addresses in the microinstruction thus selected are set in an address register at the timings for reading out the plural microinstructions. Moreover, a displacement address generator for selecting the plural microinstructions read out of the ROM generates the displacement addresses which are different in dependence upon whether a branch instruction exists in the instructions selected during the same number of cycles as that of the plurality or not and whether the branching operation succeeds or not in case the branch instruction exists.
