Upon receiving a level of a second node through a third switch in the first half of a first period, a holding circuit outputs it as a fuse signal indicating a blown-out state of a fuse. Since the third switch turns off in the second half of the first period, a change in level of the second node occurring thereafter will not affect data in the holding circuit, whereby prevents malfunction of a fuse circuit. With the fuse blown, a level of a first node gets fixed at that of a second power supply line after the first period. This eliminates a voltage difference between both ends of the fuse, thereby preventing a growback. No occurrence of growback makes just one fuse blowing sufficient for the fuse circuit even with the fuse not completely cut off. This consequently shortens a time for blowing the fuse in a test process.
