ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor integrated circuit including: N modules set in their functions in accordance with input function setting data, a circuit block having R number of I/O parts, and a module selection part for selecting R number of modules from among the N number of modules connecting the selected R number of modules and R number of I/O parts of the circuit block and connecting one module selected from among at least two modules to each of the R number of I/O parts. Each of the R number of I/O parts has a data holding part for holding a function setting data and inputting the held function setting data to the destination module, and N modules are able to replace functions of each other when the input function setting data are the same.
