    Abstract: Multi-chip package includes first through Nth semiconductor chips, each of which includes an input/output pad, an input/output driver coupled to the input/output pad, and an internal circuit. Each of the first through Nth semiconductor chips includes an internal pad for coupling the internal input/output driver and the internal circuit. The internal pads of the first through Nth semiconductor chips are coupled to each other such as via a common pad installed at a substrate. The input/output pad of the first semiconductor chip directly receives an input/output signal transmitted via a corresponding pin of the multi-chip package. The second through Nth semiconductor chips indirectly receive the input/output signal via the internal pads coupled to each other. The multi-chip package can improve signal compatibility by maintaining a parasitic load of a pin to at least the level of a single chip, when a signal is transmitted to the pin at high speed. Also, when a signal that is not necessarily transmitted at high speed is applied to a pin, semiconductor chips can be packaged according to the preexisting methods.

    Abstract: In a frequency multiplier and a method of multiplying a frequency of an external clock signal, a data output buffer, and a semiconductor device including the frequency multiplier and the data output buffer, the frequency multiplier receives an external clock signal having a predetermined frequency and outputs an internal clock signal having greater frequency than the predetermined frequency. In the semiconductor device, the data output buffer outputs data tested in response to test data. Therefore, it is possible to test a plurality of memory cells at a time by using a clock signal having a low frequency. In addition, the time and cost required for the test can be greatly reduced, and conventional testing equipment that operates at a relatively low frequency can be effectively used.
