Abstract: According to one embodiment, there is provided an integrated circuit including a plurality of flip-flops, and a control circuit that repeats a control that makes each of the flip-flops perform input and output operation in a predetermined group order with a time difference in a state where the flip-flops are connected in a scan chain and grouped.

Abstract: A semiconductor LSI circuit provided with a scan circuit includes: to-be-tested combinational logic circuits; scan circuits adjacent to and disposed alternately with the combinational logic circuits; scan elements, which form the scan circuits; a first selector inserted in a first scan circuit scan and connects a first group of scan elements and a second group of scan elements; a second selector inserted in a second scan circuits and connects a third group of scan elements and a fourth group of scan elements; a first route provided in the first group of scan elements and extending from a scanning output terminal of a scan element; and a second route provided in a third group of scan elements and extending from the scanning output terminal of a scan element. The first selector selects either the first route or the second route.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit having a plurality of wirings and a scan chain including a testing circuit configured to detect glitch noise caused by crosstalk between the wirings and a plurality of scan flip-flops connected in series, the semiconductor integrated circuit includes a retention circuit receiving a data signal propagating a test-subject wiring, and a detection circuit receiving the data signal and an output signal of the retention circuit, detecting glitch noise occurring in the data signal, and delivering an output signal to the retention circuit.
