Abstract: A multi-chip package with reduced calibration time and an impedance control (ZQ) calibration method thereof are provided. A master chip of the multi-chip package performs a first ZQ calibration operation by using a ZQ resistor, and then, the other slave chips simultaneously perform second ZQ calibration operations with respect to data input/output (DQ) pads of the slave chips by using a termination resistance value of a DQ pad of the master chip on the basis of a one-to-one correspondence relationship with the DQ pad of the master chip. The multi-chip package completes ZQ calibration by performing two ZQ calibration operations, thereby decreasing a ZQ calibration time.

Abstract: A storage device includes NVM package and a controller connected to the NVM package through a channel and controlling operation of the NVM package. The NVM package includes an interface chip, first NVM devices connected to the interface chip through a first internal channel and second NVM devices connected to the interface chip through a second internal channel. The interface chip selects the first internal channel in response to an operation request received from the controller and connects the first internal channel to the channel. The interface chip also determines whether retraining is necessary in relation to the second internal channel and transmits a retraining request to the controller when retraining is necessary.
