    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit device formed on a single chip or a microcomputer integrated on a semiconductor chip includes a central processing unit (CPU), an interface circuit (or an input/output port), a bus coupled to the CPU and the interface circuit (or the input/output port) and a variable logic circuit (or a subprocessor). The variable logic circuit (or the subprocessor) includes non-volatile memory elements storing instructions, a control circuit generating control signals in accordance with the stored instructions, and an arithmetic logic unit controlled by the generated control signals. Information can be written into the non-volatile memory elements from outside to construct the variable logic circuit or the subprocessor with any desired logical functions. The wiring operation of the memory elements can be executed in a short time, and a user can thus quickly obtain a single-chip microprocessor or a single-chip semiconductor integrated circuit device having hardware of peculiar prescribed specifications.

    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.
