Abstract

In a multi-chip packaged integrated circuit device for transmitting signals from one chip to another chip, in the case where not only a logic circuit of a first chip but also a logic circuit of a second chip requires an input signal, the multi-chip packaged integrated circuit device transmits the input signal to one or both of the logic circuits of the first and second chips via a synchronizer. In a case where three or more chips are integrated into the multi-chip packaged integrated circuit device, the input signal can be selectively transmitted to one or more of the three or more chips via the synchronizer.
