ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor chip of the present invention includes a plurality of first elements each of which diagnoses itself, and a second element which inputs diagnosis results from the first elements and determines whether or not there is a faulty first element in the first elements. A method of the present invention which is performed in a semiconductor chip including a plurality of first elements, includes diagnosing the first elements by itself; and determining whether or not there is a faulty first element in the first elements based on diagnosis results from the first elements.
