Abstract
A bare-chip IP of a multi-chip module and an external device of the multi-chip module are interfaced with each other through a dedicated I/O bare-chip IP. Each of the bare-chip IPs other than the dedicated I/O bare-chip IP is not provided with an interface circuit for connection to the external device, and thus is only required to have a withstand voltage characteristic corresponding to the operating voltage of an internal circuit. As a result, it is only necessary to provide, on the bare-chip IPs, transistors of a few kinds of withstand voltage characteristics.
