Semiconductor integrated circuit device capable of performing operational test for contained memory core at operating frequency higher than that of memory tester

摘要

A test interface circuit carries out an operational test based on a signal input to test pin terminals by directly accessing a DRAM core. A frequency multiplication circuit generates an internal test clock signal by multiplying the frequency of an external test clock signal input to the test pin terminal. A data shifter shifts read data from the DRAM core which operates according to the internal test clock signal in a test mode by N clock cycles (N is an integer of at least 0 determined by column latency) of the internal test clock signal to output the read data from the test pin terminals in synchronization with the external clock test signal.
