ABSTRACT:
A memory device provides a test mode which simultaneously carries out the function test of plural bit memory cells. In this memory device, trilevel decision is carried out based on the AND operation on the memory cell information of the selected plural bits in the single device level while bilevel decision is carried out in the board level on the basis of the OR operation on the AND result of the information of the selected plural bit memory cells and the AND result of the inverted information of the same.
