PURPOSE: To facilitate a complicated test in terms of a board level by integrating a bypass circuit even to a high speed operation circuit because a delay in a signal by a selector is not necessary to be taken into account.
CONSTITUTION: Upon the receipt of a test mode switching signal from an input section 10, mode changeover switches 2, 3 are conductive, the normal mode is switched into the test mode, and an output terminal 5 of an output buffer 7 and an output terminal 4 of an input buffer 6 are connected via a bypass circuit 1. Moreover, the output buffer 7 receives an output high impedance switching signal from an input section 11 in this case and the impedance reaches a high impedance. Since the output terminal 5 of the output buffer 7 and the output terminal 4 of the input buffer 6 are connected via the changeover switches 2, 3 in this way, the signal is bypassed at a high speed.
