ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit with a scan testing circuit which enables reducing power consumption in normal operation mode is provided. A power-supply controller applies a power-supply voltage to internal and external transmission circuits in scan test mode and stops applying the power supply voltage in normal operation mode. Thus, power consumption associated with operations of the internal and external transmission circuits is eliminated, thereby reducing power consumption in normal operation mode.
