Abstract:
A combination circuit generates first and second internal signals according to first and second input signals, respectively. A first master latch circuit selectively captures and holds a scan-in signal and the first internal signal, and generates a first output signal and a first intermediate signal based on the signals thus captured and held. A first slave latch circuit selectively captures and holds the first intermediate signal and the second internal signal, and generates a second output signal and a scan-out signal based on the signals thus captured and held. This arrangement reduces a circuit scale and power consumption of the input circuited provided in a semiconductor integrated circuit to which a scan path test method is applied.
