ABSTRACT:
A test pattern generator which is capable of generating a test pattern with high speed without requiring complicated programming is disclosed. The test pattern generator includes a parallel circuit for converting an instruction signal of a serial form to n instruction signals of a parallel form, an instruction processing circuit having n-1 instruction processors for performing arithmetic operations based on two instruction data out of the instruction signals given in the parallel form and a plurality of sets of registers each set of which is commonly provided a lower speed clock signal, an arithmetic circuit for receiving the parallel data from the instruction processing circuit and performing arithmetic operations by n arithmetic units therein and including a register which provides the data in the previous cycle to the other inputs of all of the arithmetic units, a multiplexing circuit for converting the parallel data from the arithmetic circuit to a serial form having n times faster than the parallel data based on a higher speed clock having n times faster speed of the lower speed clock signal.
