ABSTRACT:
Test data stored in a data register 13a are applied to a data generator 11a and compared with a 1 bit signal stored in a scan latch 1c to determine the coincidence or non-coincidence therebetween. Outputs from the data generator 11a are applied to RAM 10 to be written in a designated region in a memory cell array 6. Data read from the said region of the memory cell array 6 are compared with expected value data in a comparator 12. Thus, the collation of data is carried out.
