There is provided an address decoding circuit including (a) a first address decoder for practical use for decoding an address which is particular to an individual object, (b) a second address decoder for test use for decoding a constant address regardless of objects, and (c) a logic circuit receiving a selection signal and switching from decoding result transmitted thereto from the first address decoder to decoding result transmitted thereto from the second address decoder, and vice versa in accordance with the selection signal. The address decoding circuit selects decoding result of an address used for a test, which is particular to peripheral macros, in a test mode in accordance with the selection signal. Hence, when peripheral macros are mounted on different chips, it would be possible to use a common vector, even if an address for practical use is changed. This ensures reduction in steps of re-constructing test vector.
