Zusammenfassung:Current consumption of an input unit with respect to a bonding option pad is reduced, and erroneous operation of a circuit connected to this bonding option pad is prevented. A boundary scan test circuit is selectively set to an operable or disabled state by a control gate according to a signal from a function set circuit that sets the operation mode according to a potential of a bonding pad. By particularly controlling the operable and disabled state of an input circuit located at the first stage of the test circuit, power consumption can be reduced and erroneous operation while the test circuit is disabled is prevented.
