Abstract: A multi-core processor includes a plurality of former-stage cores that perform parallel processing using a plurality of pipelines covering a plurality of stages. In the pipelines, the former-stage cores perform stages ending with an instruction decode stage; stages starting with an instruction execution stage are executed by a latter-stage core. A dynamic load distribution block refers to decode results in the instruction decode stage and controls to assign the latter-stage core with a latter-stage-needed decode result being a decode result whose processing needs to be executed in the latter-stage core.

Abstract: In a semiconductor integrated circuit device, a target chip, a test chip, and an electronic device are incorporated in a package. A signal terminal of the target chip is a target terminal and to be subjected to a test. The test chip has a test mechanism for allowing the test to be performed through an external terminal exposed outside the package. In a product operation mode where the semiconductor integrated circuit device operates as a product, the electronic device is connected to the target terminal. The test chip includes a common wire connected to the test terminal, a first terminal connected to the target terminal, a first switch for opening and closing a connection between the common wire and the first terminal, a second terminal connected to the electronic device, and a second switch for opening and closing a connection between the first terminal and the second terminal.
