Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To aim at sharing a pin between different diagnostic mechanisms, without installing an exclusive pin for switching of different diagnostic mechanisms in the inside of an integrated circuit. SOLUTION: A system having a JTAG diagnostic unit 2 and a serial wire diagnostic unit 4 is described. A monitoring unit 6 is connected to a data connector 14, which is shared with the diagnostic units 2, 4. If a specified pattern is detected in the data connector 14, the switching is performed between diagnostic modes corresponding to each of the diagnostic units 2, 4 to be operated.
