ABSTRACT:
A test circuit shortens test time during testing reliability of a chip. The test circuit comprises a bit line level sensing circuit connected to a bit line and transferring data in response to a voltage level of the data when a memory cell data is transferred to the bit line, a bit line level sensing control circuit for controlling a driving operation of the bit line level sensing circuit, and transfer device for transferring the data transferred from the bit line level sensing circuit to an outside of the chip, so that the test circuit tests whether the memory cell is defective or not.
