Abstract

PURPOSE:To test a semiconductor device extremely easily and in a short time by forming input/output test exclusive circuits to all the input/output cells corresponding to package terminals or predetermined input/output cells besides a product circuit originally produced in the master slice system semiconductor device. CONSTITUTION:A buffer is taken as an example as input/output cells. A signal input from an input buffer 1 at the time of an actual use state as a product passes through a desired product circuit 2. The signal is output at desired expected values from output buffers 4 through two-input one-output selectors 3. A select signal is transmitted over the two-input one-output selectors 3 from an input buffer 5 for changing over input/output cell tests so that the signal from the desired product circuit 2 is sent to the output buffers 4 at that time. When the input/output cells are tested, the two-input one-output selectors 3 select a bypass circuit 101 passing no desired product circuit 2 by the select signal from the input buffer 5 for changing over the input/output tests. Signals entering the input buffers 1 are transmitted directly over the output buffers 4.

FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram showing an embodiment of the semiconductor device of the present invention, using a buffer as an example of an input/output cell. When the product is in actual use, a signal input from the manual buffer 1 passes through a desired product circuit 2, passes through the two-manual one output selector 3, and is output from the output buffer 4 at a desired expected value. At this time, in order to transmit the signal from the desired product circuit 2 to the output buffer 4, a select signal is sent from the input/output cell test switching manual buffer 5 to the two-manpower one-output selector 3. Next, when testing input/output cells, the two-manpower one-output selector 3 selects the bypass circuit 101 that does not pass through the desired product circuit 2 in response to the selection signal from the input-output test switching manual buffer 5, and selects the bypass circuit 101 that does not pass through the desired product circuit 2. The input signal is directly transmitted to the output buffer 4.
