The present invention is a memory circuit which selects N number of segments out of M number of segments (N<M) during normal reading, wherein all the M number of segments are activated during a read test in order to drive a common data bus for testing by a plurality of sense buffers in the M number of segments. For this, test signals are supplied to a column decoder, and segment select signals, for activating the M number of segments, are generated in response to the test signal. In this way, a plurality of segments in a memory bank in a select status can be simultaneously selected to execute a read test, and the efficiency of a compression read test can be improved.
