Semiconductor integrated circuit having multiple semiconductor chips with signal terminals

A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising:

• a package;
• a plurality of semiconductor chips disposed in the package, wherein each semiconductor chip includes a signal terminal;
• and
• a wiring for connecting signal terminals of two semiconductor chips of the semiconductor chips, wherein one of the two semiconductor chips is defined as a test object chip, the signal terminal of which is to be tested, wherein
• the signal terminal of the test object chip includes a probe terminal and a test object terminal,
• the probe terminal connects to an external terminal so that the test object terminal is tested through the external terminal, and
• the test object chip further includes:
• a common wiring for connecting the probe terminal and the test object terminal;
• a first switch for connecting and disconnecting the probe terminal and the common wiring;
• a second switch for connecting and disconnecting the test object terminal and the common wiring;
• a test signal interrupting element for interrupting the test signal to be inputted into an input circuit of the probe terminal;
• an oscillation circuit for generating a clock signal and for supplying the clock signal to the test object chip;
• an external clock terminal connecting to an external circuit so that an external clock signal is inputted into the test object chip from the external circuit;
• and
• a selecting circuit for selecting one of the external clock terminal and the oscillation circuit so that the clock signal or the external clock signal is supplied to the test object chip, wherein
• the selecting circuit selects the external clock terminal in an initial state of testing the test object terminal, and
• the selecting circuit selects the oscillation circuit when the test object terminal is not tested.
