ABSTRACT:
Integrated circuit memories provided with redundancy means enable the lines or columns of defective cells to be repaired. In order to avoid incompatibility between the addressing modifications due to a "grouped test" and those due to placing a redundant column or line into service, means are provided for the addressing, in grouped test mode, not only of several selected columns or lines of the memory but also of a redundant column or line that may have been put into service to replace a defective one of the selected columns or lines.
